Additional WAN-Related Configuration Tasks
• If you have not done so already, configure the WAN interfaces of the UTM9S (see
Chapter 3, Manually Configuring Internet and WAN Settings).
• If you want the ability to manage the UTM9S remotely, enable remote management (see
Configure Remote Management Access on page 415). If you enable remote
management, NETGEAR strongly recommend that you change your password (see
Change Passwords and Administrator and Guest Settings on page 413).
• You can set up the traffic meter for the DSL interface, if you wish. See Enable the WAN
Traffic Meter on page 434.
Custom Select the Custom radio button, and enter an MTU value in the Bytes field. For
some ISPs, you might need to reduce the MTU. This is rarely required, and
should not be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP connection.
Router’s MAC Address
Make one of the following selections:
Use Default Address Each computer or router on your network has a unique 32-bit local Ethernet
address. This is also referred to as the computer’s Media Access Control (MAC)
address. To use the UTM9S’s own MAC address, select the Use Default
Address radio button.
Use this computer’s MAC
Address
Select the Use this computer’s MAC Address radio button to allow the
UTM9S to use the MAC address of the computer you are now using to access
the web management interface. This setting is useful if your ISP requires MAC
authentication.
Use this MAC Address Select the Use this MAC Address radio button, and manually enter the MAC
address in the field next to the radio button. You would typically enter the MAC
address that your ISP is requiring for MAC authentication.
Note: The format for the MAC address is 01:23:45:67:89:AB (numbers
0–9 and either uppercase or lowercase letters A–F). If you enter a MAC
address, the existing entry is overwritten.
