4.4 WAN Setup
This section describes how to configure the WAN using Menu 2 — WAN Setup. From the main menu,
enter 2 to open menu 2.
ZyXEL recommends you configure this menu even if your ISP does not require
MAC address authentication.
Figure 4-3 Menu 2 — WAN Setup
The MAC address field allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by using either the factory
default or cloning the MAC address from a computer on your LAN. Once it is successfully configured, the
address will be copied to the rom file (ZyNOS configuration file). It will not change unless you change the
setting in menu 2 or upload a different rom file.
The following table contains instructions on how to configure your WAN setup.
