3.2.1 ISP Parameters

The ZyWALL offers three choices of encapsulation. They are Ethernet, PPTP or PPPoE.

The wizard screen varies according to the type of encapsulation that you select in the

Encapsulation field.

3.2.1.1 Ethernet

For ISPs (such as Telstra) that send UDP heartbeat packets to verify that the customer is still

online, please create a WAN-to-WAN/ZyWALL firewall rule for those packets. Contact your

ISP to find the correct port number.

Choose Ethernet when the WAN port is used as a regular Ethernet.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Select Dynamic If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. This is the

default selection.

Select Static If the ISP assigned a fixed IP address.

The fields below are available only when you select Static.
