Static Routing

Selecting Static Routing in the “Advanced Settings” screen generates the “Static
Routing” screen. Enter the addresses in their respective text boxes, then click Add.
The address will appear in the “Static Routing Table.” To remove an address, high-
light it by clicking on it in the Static Routing Table, then click Remove.

MAC Address Cloning

Selecting

MAC

Address Cloning in the “Advanced Configuration” screen generates

the “

MAC

Address Cloning” screen. A

MAC

(media access control) address is an

identifier unique to every networkable device. Some Internet Service Providers
(

ISP)

require a

MAC

address to validate a computer’s permission to be on their net-

work. If the

ISP

requires this information, obtain the

MAC

address of the computer

originally configured for the

ISP

(see Appendix D for instructions to determine the

computer’s

MAC

address). Enter the

MAC

address in the “User Select

WAN MAC

Address” text boxes in the “

MAC

Address Cloning” screen.
