IP Setup
The IP Port Setup dialog box enables you to change the IP routing capabilities that were set up
during software installation. This dialog box has three tabs: Ethernet, WAN, and Advanced.
The Ethernet tab enables you to configure two parameters relating to the Ethernet port. For
example, you can change the Ethernet port IP Address and IP mask.
WAN Tab
If you enable the IP routing master control on the Advanced tab but disable the control on this tab, all
IP packets received or to be transmitted on this WAN port will be discarded. Even if bridging is
enabled, the packets will not get across the link.
The Unnumbered Link option can be selected (checked) for the WAN ports for point-to-point links.
When selected, it disables the Port Address and Remote Address groups. Unnumbered links are
useful only between two routers; in this case, local and remote. When running RIP over a PPP link,
both ends of the link must be either unnumbered or numbered with the same IP subnet. An
advantage of not assigning an IP address to each WAN port is that you conserve valuable network
and subnet numbers.
