5.2 Configuring WAN Settings
A Wide Area Network (WAN) is a widely dispersed telecommunications network. The AP-5131
includes one WAN port. The AP-5131 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.
