8.4.1.2 PPPoE Encapsulation
The EMG3425-Q10A supports PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet). PPPoE is an IETF
standard (RFC 2516) specifying how a personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem
Chapter 8 WAN
DESCRIPTION
Enter the IPv6 prefix length.
An IPv6 prefix length specifies how many most significant bits (starting from the left) in
the address compose the network address.
Enter the subnet mask number (1~32) for the IPv4 network.
Select Obtained From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and
the EMG3425-Q10A's WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only)
DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's
IP address in the field to the right.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
The MAC address section allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address by using
the EMG3425-Q10A's MAC address, copying the MAC address from a computer on your
LAN or manually entering a MAC address.
Select Factory default to use the factory assigned default MAC Address.
Select Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter the IP address of
the computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning.
Select this option and enter the MAC address you want to use.
This is not available when you select IPv4 Only in the IPv6/IPv4 field.
Select this if you want to obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server.
Select this if you have a fixed IPv6 address assigned by your ISP.
Enter the IPv6 address assigned by your ISP.
Enter the address prefix length to specify how many most significant bits in an IPv6
address compose the network address.
Enter the IP address of the next-hop gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the
same segment as your EMG3425-Q10A's interface(s). The gateway helps forward
packets to their destinations.
Select this to have the EMG3425-Q10A get the IPv6 DNS server addresses from the ISP
automatically.
Select this to have the EMG3425-Q10A use the IPv6 DNS server addresses you configure
manually.
Enter the IPv6 DNS server address assigned by the ISP.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the EMG3425-Q10A.
Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
