5.6 Configuring More Connections

This section describes the protocol-independent parameters for a remote network. They are
required for placing calls to a remote gateway and the network behind it across a WAN
connection. When you use the WAN > Internet Connection screen to set up Internet access,
you are configuring the first WAN connection.
Click Network > WAN > More Connections to display the screen as shown next.

Zero

Configuration

This feature is not applicable/available when you configure the P-660HWP-Dx to

use a static WAN IP address or in bridge mode.
Select Yes to set the P-660HWP-Dx to automatically detect the Internet connection

settings (such as the VCI/VPI numbers and the encapsulation method) from the

ISP and make the necessary configuration changes.
Select No to disable this feature. You must manually configure the P-660HWP-Dx

for Internet access.

PPPoE

Passthrough

This feature is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
In addition to the P-660HWP-Dx's built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE

pass through to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on

their computers to connect to the ISP via the P-660HWP-Dx. Each host can have a

separate account and a public WAN IP address.
PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not

appropriate.
Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use

PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
