Ethernet Ports/WAN
NSE releases 8.2 and later support multiple, separately configurable WAN interfaces. You may
assign each interface as a WAN, Subscriber Interface, or specify that it remain out of service.
Each interface has its own IP, DNS, Bandwidth, VLAN, and NAT IP addresses, and can obtain
its IP address by DHCP, PPPoE, or Static configuration.
The number of configurable WANs will vary with the Access Gateway hardware. See “Product
Specifications” on page 315 for these details.
The NSE can now support up to five (AG5800) WAN interfaces at once, using completely
independent network settings for each.
Each WAN port has independent Mode, IP, DNS, iNAT, Monitoring, Additional NAT
addresses, 802.1Q tagging, and bandwidth settings.
Roles for most ports (those marked either EthX or AuxX) are unrestricted; that is,
each port can be set to
WAN Network Side Link
SUB (Subscriber), or
OOS (Out Of Service).
However, designated WAN or LAN ports cannot be set to the opposite role, but can be
set to OOS.
Each configured and active WAN port can be used for NSE Management activity, and
the WMI is available on that address.
Multiple WAN interfaces may be configured and used for management activity (but
not subscriber traffic), even without the Load Balancing license feature (or with the
feature disabled).
Out of the box, the NSE will boot with one WAN port and one LAN port enabled, and
the remaining ports set to out-of-service.
