Chapter 5
WAN Setup
This chapter describes how to configure the WAN using Menu 2 — WAN Setup.
5.1 Cloning The MAC Address
The MAC address field allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by using either the factory
default or cloning the MAC address from a computer on your LAN. Once it is successfully configured, the
address will be copied to the rom file (ZyNOS configuration file). It will not change unless you change the
setting in menu 2 or upload a different rom file.
ZyXEL recommends that you clone the MAC address of a computer on your LAN
even if your ISP does not require MAC address authentication.
5.2 Dial-Backup
The Dial Backup port can be used in reserve, as a traditional dial-up connection should the broadband
connection to the WAN port fail. Use this menu to automatically bring up this connection if your broadband
connection fails.
5.3 WAN Setup
From the main menu, enter 2 to open menu 2.
