WAN Interface

The selection criteria for WAN interface determine how the Metro Wireless Access
Gateway receives its IP address assignment on the WAN interface. Selecting Obtain
an IP address automatically will allow the Wireless Access Gateway to get a
dynamically assigned IP address from the Metro Mesh node (or the DHCP server
behind the Metro Mesh node). Use the following IP address selection to statically
configure an IP address to the Wireless Access Gateway.
