The following table descirbes the labels on the screen on the preceeding page.
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
WAN IP Address Assignment
Get automatically from ISP
option
Select this selection if your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. This is the
default
Use fixed IP address
Select this option If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
My WAN IP Address
Enter the 1500WR Wireless Router WAN IP address in this field if you selected
Use
Fixed IP Address.
My WAN IP Subnet Mask
(Ethernet encapsulation)
Enter the 1500WR Wireless Router WAN IP subnet mask (if your ISP gave you
one) in this field if you selected
Use Fixed IP Address.
Remote IP Address (or
Gateway IP Address)
Type the IP address of the remote network or gateway. The gateway is an
immediate neighbor of your 1500WR Wireless Router that will forward the packet
to the destination. On the LAN, the gateway must be a router on the same
segment as your 1500WR Wireless Router; over the WAN, the gateway must be
the IP address of one of the remote nodes.
Remote IP Subnet Mask (PPPoE
and PPTP encapsulation)
When using a LAN to LAN application, type the IP subnet mask of the
destination network. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.255, in the subnet mask field, to force the
network number to be identical to the host ID.
Network Address Translation
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol
address used within one network to a different IP address known within another
network.
SUA
(Single User Account) is a subset of NAT that supports two types of
mapping:
Many-to-One
and
Server.
When you select this option the 1500WR
Wireless Router will use Address Mapping Set 255 in the SMT.
Choose
SUA Only
if you have just one public WAN IP address for your 1500WR
Wireless Router. Choose
Full Feature
if you have multiple public WAN IP
addresses for your 1500WR Wireless Router. For more information about NAT
refer to the MAT chapter in this
User’s Guide.
Metric (PPPoE and PPTP only)
Type a number that approximates the cost for this link. Metric represents the “cost”
of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses hop count as the measurement
of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks. The number need not
be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good
number.
Private (PPPoE and PPTP
only)
This parameter determines if the 1500WR Wireless Router will include the route
to this remote node in its RIP broadcasts. If select
Yes,
this route is kept private
and not included in RIP broadcast. If select
No,
the route to this remote node will
be propagated to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
