Configuring WAN interfaces
Overview
The WAN interfaces that you can configure on the Web interface are Ethernet interfaces.
An Ethernet interface supports the following connection modes:
• Auto—The interface acts as a DHCP client to get an IP address through DHCP.
• Manual—The IP address and subnet mask are configured manually for the interface.
• PPPoE—The interface acts as a PPPoE client. PPPoE provides access to the Internet for hosts in an
Ethernet through remote access devices. It also implements access control and accounting on a
per-host basis. As it is cost-effective, PPPoE gains popularity in various applications, such as
residential networks.
Support for WAN interface configuration depends on the device model.
