The listed IP addresses may include:
•
The IP address of the device's LAN (Ethernet) port, called
[eth-0]. See Configuring the LAN Ports on page 33 for
instructions on configuring this address.
•
The IP address of the WAN (ADSL line) interface, which your
ISP and other external devices use to identify your network.
It may be identified in the [Configuration Manager] by the names
[ppp-0], [eoa-0], or [ipoa-0], depending on the protocol your
device uses to communicate with your ISP. Your ISP may
assign the same address each time, or it may change
each time you reconnect.
•
The loopback IP address, named [lo-0], of [127.0.0.1].
This special address enables the device to keep any data
addressed directly to it, rather than route the data through
the WAN or LAN ports.
If your device has additional IP-enabled interfaces,
the IP addresses of these will also display.
