Gateway – The IP Address of the Gateway or Router that the Dual WAN VPN
Firewall must use to communicate with the destination above. (NOT the router
attached to the remote segment.)
Interface – Select the correct interface, usually "LAN". The "WAN" interface is only
available if NAT (Network Address Translation) is disabled.
Metric – The number of "hops" (routers) pass through to reach the remote LAN
segment. The shortest path will be used.
Routing list – This shows the current routing table set by users.
Configuring Other Routers on your LAN
All traffic for devices not on the local LAN must be forwarded to the Dual WAN VPN Firewall,
so that they can be forwarded to the Internet. This is done by configuring other Routers to
use the Dual WAN VPN Firewall as the Default Route or Default Gateway, as illustrated by
the example below.
