Prestige 623ME-T User’s Guide
Internet Access 13-1
Chapter 13
Internet Access
This chapter shows you how to configure the LAN and WAN of your Prestige for Internet access.
13.1 Internet Access Overview
Refer to the chapters on the web configurator’s wizard, LAN and WAN screens for more background
information on fields in the SMT screens covered in this chapter.
13.2 IP Policies
Traditionally, routing is based on the destination address only and the router takes the shortest path to
forward a packet. IP Policy Routing (IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior
and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the network administrator. Policy-based
routing is applied to incoming packets on a per interface basis, prior to the normal routing. Create policies
using SMT menu 25 (see IP Policy Routing) and apply them on the Prestige LAN and/or WAN interfaces
using menus 3.2 (LAN) and 11.3 (WAN).
13.3 Route IP Setup
The first step is to enable the IP routing in Menu 1 — General Setup.
To edit menu 1, type in 1 in the main menu and press [ENTER]. Set the Route IP field to Yes by pressing
[SPACE BAR].
