Chapter 6 Broadband Table 11 Network Setting > Broadband > Add New WAN Interface/Edit (Routing Mode) (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION PPPoE Passthrough This field is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation. In addition to the VMG's built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE pass through to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP via the VMG. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP address. PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not appropriate. Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP. IP Address (This is available only when you select IPv4 Only or IPv4 IPv6 DualStack in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.) Obtain an IP Address Automatically A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is not fixed; the ISP assigns you a different one each time you connect to the Internet. Select this if you have a dynamic IP address. Static IP Address Select this option If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address. IP Address Enter the static IP address provided by your ISP. VLAN (These fields appear when the Type is set to ADSL/VDSL over PTM.) Active Select this to enable VLAN on this WAN interface. 802.1p IEEE 802.1p defines up to 8 separate traffic types by inserting a tag into a MAC-layer frame that contains bits to define class of service. Select the IEEE 802.1p priority level (from 0 to 7) to add to traffic through this connection. The greater the number, the higher the priority level. 802.1q Type the VLAN ID number (from 1 to 4094) for traffic through this connection. MTU MTU Enter the MTU (Maximum Transfer Unit) size for this traffic. Routing Feature (This is available only when you select IPv4 Only or IPv4 IPv6 DualStack in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.) NAT Enable Select this option to activate NAT on this connection. Fullcone NAT Enable Select this option to enable full cone NAT on this connection. This field is available only when you activate NAT. In full cone NAT, the VMG maps all outgoing packets from an internal IP address and port to a single IP address and port on the external network. The VMG also maps packets coming to that external IP address and port to the internal IP address and port. IGMP Proxy Enable Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data. Select this option to have the VMG act as an IGMP proxy on this connection. This allows the VMG to get subscribing information and maintain a joined member list for each multicast group. It can reduce multicast traffic significantly. Apply as Default Select this option to have the VMG use the WAN interface of this connection as the system Gateway default gateway. DNS Server (This is available only when you select IPv4 Only or IPv4 IPv6 DualStack in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.) Select Obtain DNS Info Automically if you want the VMG to use the DNS server addresses assigned by your ISP. Primary DNS Server Secondary DNS Server Select Use Following Static DNS Address if you want the VMG to use the DNS server addresses you configure manually. Enter the first DNS server address assigned by the ISP. Enter the second DNS server address assigned by the ISP. VMG4927-B50A / VMG9827-B50A User's Guide 76

PPPoE
Passthrough
This field is available when you select
PPPoE
encapsulation.
In addition to the VMG’s built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE pass through to allow up to
ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP via
the VMG. Each host can have a separate account and a public WAN IP address.
PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not appropriate.
Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client
software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
IP Address (This is available only when you select
IPv4 Only
or
IPv4 IPv6 DualStack
in the
IPv4/IPv6 Mode
field.)
Obtain an IP
Address
Automatically
A static IP address is a fixed IP that your ISP gives you. A dynamic IP address is not fixed; the ISP
assigns you a different one each time you connect to the Internet. Select this if you have a
dynamic IP address.
Static IP Address
Select this option If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.
IP Address
Enter the static IP address provided by your ISP.

Type
is set to
ADSL/VDSL over PTM
.)
Active
Select this to enable VLAN on this WAN interface.
802.1p
IEEE 802.1p defines up to 8 separate traffic types by inserting a tag into a MAC-layer frame that
contains bits to define class of service.
Select the IEEE 802.1p priority level (from 0 to 7) to add to traffic through this connection. The

field.)
NAT Enable
Select this option to activate NAT on this connection.
Fullcone NAT
Enable
Select this option to enable full cone NAT on this connection. This field is available only when you

coming to that external IP address and port to the internal IP address and port.
IGMP Proxy
Enable
Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) is a network-layer protocol used to establish
membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
Select this option to have the VMG act as an IGMP proxy on this connection. This allows the VMG
to get subscribing information and maintain a joined member list for each multicast group. It can
reduce multicast traffic significantly.
Apply as Default
Gateway
Select this option to have the VMG use the WAN interface of this connection as the system
default gateway.
DNS Server (This is available only when you select
