Syslog
Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and
use the web configurator, an FTP or a TFTP tool to put it on the ZyXEL
Device.
Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!
Make a copy of the ZyXEL Device's configuration. You can put it back on
the ZyXEL Device later if you decide to revert back to an earlier
configuration.
Each computer on your network must have its own unique IP address.
Use NAT to convert your public IP address(es) to multiple private IP
addresses for the computers on your network.
Your ZyXEL Device supports up to 8 PVCs.
The ZyXEL Device's packet filtering functions allows added network
security and management.
If you have a server (mail or web server for example) on your network,
you can use this feature to let people access it from the Internet.
Traffic redirect forwards WAN traffic to a backup gateway when the
ZyXEL Device cannot connect to the Internet, thus acting as an auxiliary
if your regular WAN connection fails.
Use this feature to have the ZyXEL Device assign IP addresses, an IP
default gateway and DNS servers to computers on your network.
With Dynamic DNS (Domain Name System) support, you can use a
fixed URL, www.zyxel.com for example, with a dynamic IP address. You
must register for this service with a Dynamic DNS service provider.
IP multicast is used to send traffic to a specific group of computers. The
ZyXEL Device supports versions 1 and 2 of IGMP (Internet Group
Management Protocol) used to join multicast groups (see RFC 2236).
IP alias allows you to subdivide a physical network into logical networks
over the same Ethernet interface with the ZyXEL Device itself as the
gateway for each subnet.
Traditionally, routing is based on the destination address only and the
router takes the shortest path to forward a packet. IP Policy Routing
(IPPR) provides a mechanism to override the default routing behavior
and alter the packet forwarding based on the policy defined by the
network administrator.
Get the current time and date from an external server when you turn on
your ZyXEL Device. You can also set the time manually. These dates
and times are then used in logs.
PPPoE mimics a dial-up Internet access connection.
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) enables secure transfer of
data through a Virtual Private Network (VPN). The ZyXEL Device
supports one PPTP connection at a time.
