ADDRESS MODE
This option determines how the WAN interface receives its IP address. USER SPECIFIED is the normal
mode of operation.
• The choices are
USER SPECIFIED (default) and IPCP ASSIGNED if the L2 PROTOCOL is set to
PPP.
• The choices are
USER SPECIFIED (default), IARP, and DHCP CLIENT if the L2 PROTOCOL is set
to
FRAME RELAY. IARP can be used to learn the far-end IP address.
• If using the Auto-config option and the
L2 PROTOCOL is PPP, the default is IPCP ASSIGNED.
This means the unit will learn its IP address from a router on the WAN during IPCP
negotiation. It is the same mechanism used by the auto-detection algorithm.
• If using the Auto-config option and the
L2 PROTOCOL is FRAME RELAY, the default is DHCP
C
LIENT. This means a DHCP Server from the service provider will issue this unit an IP address
using DHCP.
• If the Auto-config option is not used, the
USER SPECIFIED option for both PPP and FRAME
R
ELAY allows the IP addresses to be statically programed into the unit.
LOCAL IP ADDRESS
(This option is only applicable in USER SPECIFIED address mode.) For PPP, this IP address is the local
WAN IP address and can be statically assigned if using numbered interfaces. For
FRAME RELAY, this
is the numbered IP associated with this DLCI interface. This address is used by the unit to respond to
Inverse ARP requests. If this IP address is left as
0.0.0.0, the link is treated as unnumbered and the
unit responds to the Inverse ARP with its Ethernet IP address. Default is
0.0.0.0.
IP N
ETMASK
(This option is not available for FRAME RELAY DHCP CLIENT ADDRESS MODE.) For Frame Relay, the
IP netmask which is applied to the
FAR-END IP ADDRESS and LOCAL IP ADDRESS is specified here.
Default is
0.0.0.0. For the PPP protocol, this network mask is applied to the FAR-END IP ADDRESS for
determining the PPP peer’s network. If left as
0.0.0.0, a standard network mask is used. Default is
0.0.0.0.
F
AR-END IP ADDRESS
(This option is not available for FRAME RELAY DHCP CLIENT ADDRESS MODE, FRAME RELAY IARP
A
DDRESS MODE, or PPP IPCP ASSIGNED ADDRESS MODE.) For Frame Relay, this is the IP address of
the device on the other end of the virtual circuit. When this DLCI becomes active, the unit will add a
route in the IP routing table. Default is
0.0.0.0. For the PPP protocol, the PPP peer’s IP address or
network can be set here, if known. Leaving this at
0.0.0.0 means that the unit will determine the PPP
peer’s IP and network (if unnumbered) using the PPP IPCP. Default is
0.0.0.0.
