CHAPTER 7 The WAN Configuration Screens 7.1 Overview Use the ADVANCED > WAN Configuration screens to set up your WiMAX Device's Wide Area Network (WAN) or Internet features. A Wide Area Network (or WAN) links geographically dispersed locations to other networks or the Internet. A WAN configuration can include switched and permanent telephone circuits, terrestrial radio systems and satellite systems. 7.1.1 What You Can Do in This Chapter • The Internet Connection screen (Section 7.2 on page 93) lets you set up your WiMAX Device's Internet settings. • The WiMAX Configuration screen (Section 7.3 on page 95) lets set up the frequencies used by your WiMAX Device. • The Traffic Redirect screen (Section 7.4 on page 99) lets change your WiMAX Device's traffic redirect settings. • The Advanced screen (Section 7.5 on page 101) lets configure your DNS server, RIP, Multicast and Windows Networking settings. 7.1.2 What You Need to Know The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. WiMAX WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) is the IEEE 802.16 wireless networking standard, which provides high-bandwidth, wide-range wireless service across wireless Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs). ZyXEL is a member of the WiMAX Forum, the industry group dedicated to promoting and certifying interoperability of wireless broadband products. In a wireless MAN, a wireless-equipped computer is known either as a mobile station (MS) or a subscriber station (SS). Mobile stations use the IEEE 802.16e standard and are able to maintain connectivity while switching their connection User's Guide 89
