Status For the LAN, DMZ and WLAN ports, this displays the port speed and duplex
setting. Ethernet port connections can be in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. Full-
duplex refers to a device's ability to send and receive simultaneously, while half-
duplex indicates that traffic can flow in only one direction at a time. The Ethernet
port must use the same speed or duplex mode setting as the peer Ethernet port in
order to connect.
For the WAN and Dial Backup ports, it displays the port speed and duplex setting
if you’re using Ethernet encapsulation and Down (line is down or not connected),
Idle (line (ppp) idle), Dial (starting to trigger a call) or Drop (dropping a call) if
you’re using PPPoE encapsulation.
For the WLAN card, it displays the transmission rate when a wireless LAN card is
inserted and WLAN is enabled or Down when a wireless LAN card is not inserted
or WLAN is disabled.
IP/Netmask This shows the port’s IP address and subnet mask.
IP Assignment For the WAN, if the ZyWALL gets its IP address automatically from an ISP, this
displays DHCP client when you’re using Ethernet encapsulation and IPCP Client
when you’re using PPPoE or PPTP encapsulation. Static displays if the WAN port
is using a manually entered static (fixed) IP address.
For the LAN, WLAN or DMZ, DHCP server displays when the ZyWALL is set to
automatically give IP address information to the computers connected to the LAN.
DHCP relay displays when the ZyWALL is set to forward IP address assignment
requests to another DHCP server. Static displays if the LAN port is using a
manually entered static (fixed) IP address. In this case, you must have another
DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured.
For the dial backup port, this shows N/A when dial backup is disabled and IPCP
client when dial backup is enabled.
Renew If you are using Ethernet encapsulation and the WAN port is configured to get the
IP address automatically from the ISP, click Renew to release the WAN port’s
dynamically assigned IP address and get the IP address afresh. Click Dial to dial
up the PPTP, PPPoE or dial backup connection. Click Drop to disconnect the
PPTP, PPPoE or dial backup connection.
