PLANET XRT-401E - Manual (Page 35)

Parameter Description
WAN Interface Settings To configure WAN Interface IP
Dynamic IP The ISP requires you to obtain an IP address by DHCP
before connecting to the L2TP server.
MAC Cloning
Select to allow replacing the WAN MAC
address with a specific MAC address.
MAC Address
Your ISP may require a particular MAC address in order for
you to connect to the Internet. This MAC address is the
PC’s MAC address that your ISP had originally connected
your Internet connection to. Type in this MAC address in
this section or use the “Clone MAC Address” button to
replace the WAN MAC address with the MAC address of
that PC.
Static IP The ISP gives you a static IP to be used to connect to the
PPTP server. You must type in the related IP address such
as IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway.
L2TP Settings
L2TP Account Enter the L2TP Account provided by your ISP for the L2TP
connection.
L2TP Password Enter the Password provided by your ISP for the L2TP
connection.
Retype Password Re-enter the Password for confirmation.
L2TP Gateway gateway IP address or domain name here. If you do not
have a L2TP gateway then enter the ISP’s Gateway IP
address above or domain name.
Maximum Idle Time You can specify an idle time threshold (seconds) for the
WAN port. This means if no packets have been sent (no
one using the Internet) during this specified period, the
router will automatically disconnect the connection with
your ISP.
Connection Mode Select the desired option:
Keep-alive (maintain connection)
The connection will never be disconnected by this device. If
disconnected by your ISP, the connection will be
reestablished immediately. (However, this does not ensure
that your Internet IP address will remain unchanged.)
Auto-Connect
An Internet connection is automatically made when
required, and disconnected when idle for the time period
