Wireless (PPPoE)
Address Type This parameter specifies whether the wireless interface parameters are to be configured
through PPPoE server or to be assigned statically.
By default, the address type is set to PPPoE-ipcp meaning which the PPPoE client obtains
the IP parameters from a network PPPoE server automatically during the bootup. To
manually configure the PPPoE Client’s IP settings, select Static.
IP Address Represents the Primary IP address of the wireless interface.
When the address type is set to PPPoE-ipcp, this parameter is read-only and displays the
PPPoE client’s IP address obtained from the PPPoE server. The client will fallback to
169.254.130.132, if it cannot obtain the IP address from the PPPoE server.
When the address type is set to Static, the IP address by default is set to
169.254.130.132. You can manually change the IP address.
Subnet Mask Represents the subnet mask of the wireless interface.
When the address type is set to PPPoE-ipcp, this parameter is read-only and is set to Host
Mask as it is a point-to-point interface
. The client will fallback to 255.255.255.0, if it
cannot obtain the IP address from the PPPoE server.
When the address type is set to Static, the subnet mask by default is set to
255.255.255.0. You can manually change the subnet mask.
PPPoE Secondary IP
IP Address Represents the Secondary IP address of the wireless interface.
The Secondary IP serves as an alternate source to access/manage the device irrespective of
the PPPoE link is up or down, as long as the WORP link is up. By using Secondary IP
address, only management access to the device is allowed.
Configure Secondary IP address manually. When PPPoE is disabled, the Secondary IP
address is not applicable.
Subnet Mask Represents the subnet mask of the Secondary IP address.
The subnet mask by default is set to 0.0.0.0. You can manually change the subnet mask.
The subnet mask of the Secondary IP address should be different from other subnets.
