Wan - Static Ip - EnGenius Wireless Outdoor Access Point & Client Bridge User Manual

Long Range Wireless Access Point / Client Bridge Version 1.0
6.4.1.2 WAN – Static IP
The WAN interface can be configured as Static IP address. In this type of
connection, your ISP provides you with a dedicated IP address (which does not
change as DHCP).
Internet Connection Type: Select the Static IP from the drop-down list.
Account Name: Specify an account name if your ISP has provided you with one.
Domain Name: Specify a domain name if the ISP has provided you with one.
MTU: The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is a parameter that determines the
largest packet size (in bytes) that the router will send to the WAN. If LAN devices
send larger packets, the router will break them into smaller packets. Ideally, you
should set this to match the MTU of the connection to your ISP. Typical values are
1500 bytes for an Ethernet connection and 1492 bytes for a PPPoE connection. If the
router's MTU is set too high, packets will be fragmented downstream. If the router's
MTU is set too low, the router will fragment packets unnecessarily and in extreme
cases may be unable to establish some connections. In either case, network
performance can suffer.
IP Address: Specify the IP address for this device, which is assigned by your ISP.
Subnet Mask: Specify the subnet mask for this IP address, which is assigned by
your ISP.
Default Gateway: Specify the IP address of the default gateway, which is assigned
by your ISP.
