Wan - TP-Link TL-ER6120 User Manual

Note:
In Non-NAT mode, all the NAT forwarding rules will be disabled.
Classic Mode

It's the combined mode of NAT mode and Non-NAT mode. In Classic mode, the router will first
transport the packets which are compliant with NAT forwarding rules and then match the other packets
to the static routing rules. The matched packets will be transmitted based on the static routing rules
and the unmatched ones will be dropped. In this way, the router can implement NAT for the packets
without blocking the packets in the different subnet of the ports.

3.1.3 WAN

TL-ER6120 provides the following six Internet connection types: Static IP, Dynamic IP, PPPoE/Russian
PPPoE, L2TP/Russian L2TP, PPTP/Russian PPTP and BigPond. To configure the WAN, please first
select the type of Internet connection provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).
Tips:
It's allowed to set the IP addresses of both the WAN ports within the same subnet. However, to
guarantee a normal communication, make sure that the WAN ports can access the same network,
such as Internet or a local area network.
Choose the menu Network→WAN to load the configuration page.
