Chapter 6 Advanced Setup

Encapsulation

If the Gateway is configured to obtain an

IP

address through

DHCP

or to specify a

static

IP

address, select the appropriate encapsulation option used by the ISP (

RFC

1483

Bridged or

RFC

1483

Routed).

Note: Contact the

ISP

if unsure of the proper configuration.

Unnumbered Mode/VIP Mode

If a block of public static

IP

addresses was purchased from the

ISP

, select

Unnumbered Mode by clicking in the appropriate check box. Then, enter the IP
Address and Subnet Mask in the “Gateway Address” and “Unnumbered Subnet
Mask” text boxes below the “Unnumbered

IP

Address.” Click Next, then click Save

and Restart to make all changes permanent.
The Unnumbered Mode feature automatically configures the appropriate

IP

rout-

ing for the

IP

Address block. The

IP

route will bypass

NAT

, enabling the public

IP

s

to be routed WAN

-to-

LAN

, as well as

LAN

-to-

WAN

.

Note: The

IP

Address information should be obtained from the

ISP

when purchasing a block of public static

IP

address. Contact

the

ISP

if this information was not received.
