IpoA Configuration
The IPoA table contains a row for each EOA interface currently defined on the device. The table may initially
contain no entries.
Figure 13. IPoA Configuration
The IPoA Configuration table displays the following fields:
IPoA Interface The IPoA interface you are configuring.
Conf. IP Address The IP address you want to assign to the interface.
Interface Sec Type
The type of Firewall protections that are in effect on the interface.
A public interface connects to the Internet (PPP interfaces are typically
public). Packets received on a public interface are subject to the most
restrictive set of firewall protections defined in the software.
A private interface connects to your LAN, such as the Ethernet interface.
Packets received on a private interface are subject to a less restrictive set
of protections, because they originate within the network.
The term DMZ (de-militarized zone), in Internet networking terms, refers to
computers that are available for both public and in-network accesses (such
as a company's public Web server).
Netmask The netmask you want to assign to the interface.
RFC 1577
Specifies whether the IPoA protocol to be used complies with the IEFT
specification named "RFC 1577 - Classical IP and ARP over ATM"
(contact your ISP if unsure).
Default Route
This indicates whether the Router should use the IP address assigned to
this connection as its default route. It is Enabled by default and can be
Disabled by selecting the appropriate option.
Gateway IP Address
The external IP address that the Router communicates with via the IPoA
interface to gain access to the Internet. This is typically an ISP server.
