Figure 4 – Select Function
Select the function of the WAN Ethernet port by choosing IP Routing (NAT Enabled) or
IP Routing (NAT Disabled). If you are using NAT Enabled, you may also select Enable
PPPoE
.
• Select
IP Routing (NAT Enabled) to allow local LAN clients to share one external IP
address for accessing the Internet. This option is most often used when the
RF500S is connected to a DSL or cable modem, or when the IP segment of the
server needs firewall protection.
• Select IP Routing (NAT Disabled) to allow the RF500S to function as a router
between IP segments. This option is ideal for organizations needing to segment
workgroups.
• Select
Enable PPPoE to use the RF500S with a time-base, rather than fixed-cost
DSL modem connection. Enter the User Name and Password provided by your ISP.
This option is most often used when connecting via DSL to the Internet.
Note: Enable PPPoE is valid only when IP Routing (NAT Enabled) is selected.
