IP Addresses: Configuration Overview
For each IP interface required, select the IP address allocation method and configure the required
parameters from the IP Interfaces Create or Edit page.
The following allocation methods are available based on whether you are configuring an internal or
external interface:
• Internal (LAN) Interfaces —the only addressing method available on an internal IP interface is
Static IP Address
• External (WAN) Interface — Typically, this is the interface that the device uses to connect to your
Internet Service Provider (ISP). You can only configure one external IP interface on the device.
Choose from the following allocation methods:
o
Static IP Address — select this if are using a public static IP address, or if your ISP has
allocated you a public static IP address.
o
DHCP — select this if your ISP has told you to use DHCP, or you are connecting to a device that
provides IP configuration using DHCP. DHCP is the default IP allocation method for the device
external interface.
o
PPTP client — select this if your ISP is using PPTP to provide your IP configuration.
o
L2TP client — select this if your ISP is using L2TP to provide your IP configuration.
o
PPPoE client — select this if your ISP is using PPPoE to provide your IP configuration.
Subnet The subnet mask for the interface
MAC The MAC address for the interface. The device automatically assigns a unique
MAC address for every virtual interface configured on the device.
Status The status of the interface, either Up, or Down with brief details of why the
interface is down
Function(s) The functions available to manage the IP Interfaces:
• Delete an interface
• Edit the IP interface configuration
