5.2 Configuring WAN Settings

A Wide Area Network (WAN) is a widely dispersed telecommunications network. The access point
includes one WAN port. The access point WAN port has its own MAC address. In a corporate
environment, the WAN port might connect to a larger corporate network. For a small business, the
WAN port might connect to a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet.

Use the

WAN

screen to set the WAN IP configuration and Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet

(PPPoE) parameters.

To configure WAN settings for the access point:

Select

Network Configuration

->

WAN

from the access point menu tree.
