WAN 8-7
Table 8-5 WAN : IP
LABEL DESCRIPTION
My WAN IP
Address Enter your WAN IP address in this field if you selected Use Fixed IP Address.
My WAN IP Subnet
Mask (Ethernet
only) Type your network's IP subnet Mask.
Remote IP Address Enter the Remote IP Address (if your ISP gave you one) in this field.
Gateway/Remote
IP Address Enter the gateway IP address (if your ISP gave you one) in this field if you
selected Use Fixed IP Address.
Network Address
Translation Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol
address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local
network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a
public IP address used on the Internet).
Choose None to disable NAT.
Choose SUA Only if you have a single public IP address. SUA (Single User
Account) is a subset of NAT that supports two types of mapping: Many-to-One
and Server.
Choose Full Feature if you have multiple public IP addresses. Full Feature
mapping types include: One-to-One, Many-to-One (SUA/PAT), Many-to-Many
Overload, Many- One-to-One and Server. When you select Full Feature you
must configure at least one address mapping set!
For more information about NAT refer to the NAT chapter in this User's Guide.
Metric (PPPoE and
PPTP only) This field sets this route's priority among the routes the HomeSafe uses.
The metric represents the "cost of transmission". A router determines the best
route for transmission by choosing a path with the lowest "cost". RIP routing uses
hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of "1" for directly
connected networks. The number must be between "1" and "15"; a number
greater than "15" means the link is down. The smaller the number, the lower the
"cost".
Private (PPPoE and
PPTP only) This parameter determines if the HomeSafe will include the route to this remote
node in its RIP broadcasts. If set to Yes, this route is kept private and not included
in RIP broadcast. If No, the route to this remote node will be propagated to other
hosts through RIP broadcasts.
RIP Direction RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing
information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and
receiving of RIP packets.
Choose Both, None, In Only or Out Only.
When set to Both or Out Only, the HomeSafe will broadcast its routing table
periodically.
When set to Both or In Only, the HomeSafe will incorporate RIP information that
it receives.
When set to None, the HomeSafe will not send any RIP packets and will ignore
any RIP packets received.
By default, RIP Direction is set to Both.
