IP Addressing Basics
B-9
Ethernet interface. This IP address is the source IP address for
router-generated packets going out unnumbered interfaces. The router's
routing tables and default gateway settings take care of getting the data
traffic to the correct remote destinations. Therefore, although you cannot
PING or TELNET to the WAN interface when unnumbered is in use, you
can PING or TELNET the router using the IP address of a numbered
interface.
Unnumbered does not mean unconfigured. An OfficeConnect Remote
840 with factory default configuration will not provide an unnumbered
link - you must configure the remote site local WAN IP address as
unnumbered (equal to 0.0.0.0).
