5.5 The More Connections Screen
The ZyXEL Device allows you to configure more than one Internet access connection. To
configure additional Internet access connections click Network > WAN > More
Connections. The screen differs by the encapsulation you select. When you use the WAN >
Internet Connection screen to set up Internet access, you are configuring the first WAN
connection.
Figure 29 WAN > More Connections
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
VLAN Active Select this option to enable VLAN multiplexing of multiple protocols over a single
virtual circuit. You need to assign a VLAN ID and priority level to traffic through
each WAN connection. All WAN connections share one MAC address. This allows
the backbone switch to classify and service traffic based on the VLAN tag, instead
of the MAC address.
Otherwise, disable VLAN multiplexing and each WAN connection has its own MAC
address.
Note: This field is only configurable for the first WAN connection.
When you change the setting here, all existing WAN
connections will be removed except for the first WAN
connection.
VLAN ID Enter a VLAN ID number for traffic that goes through this connection.
Priority Enter a priority level for traffic that goes through this connection.
Back Click this to return to the previous screen.
Apply Click this to save the changes.
Reset Click this to restore your last-saved settings.
