Network Address Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) converts an IP address in one network to a different IP address or set of IP addresses
in another network. The access point router maps its local (Inside) network addresses to WAN (Outside) IP addresses, and
translates the WAN IP addresses on incoming packets to local IP addresses. NAT is useful because it allows the
authentication of incoming and outgoing requests, and minimizes the number of WAN IP addresses needed when a range
of local IP addresses is mapped to each WAN IP address. The default setting is None (neither inside or outside).

parameters for PPPoE client interoperation:
Provide the 64 character maximum username used for authentication support by the
PPPoE client.
Provide the 64 character maximum password used for authentication by the PPPoE client.
Use the Show option to view the actual characters comprising the password.
Use the drop-down menu to specify authentication type used by the PPPoE client, and
whose credentials must be shared by its peer access point. Supported authentication
options include None, PAP, CHAP, MSCHAP, and MSCHAP-v2.
settings for the PPPoE point-to-point connection with the PPPoE client:
Set the PPPoE client Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) from 500 - 1,492. The MTU is the
largest physical packet size in bytes a network can transmit. Any messages larger than
the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. A PPPoE client should be able
to maintain its point-to-point connection for this defined MTU size. The default MTU is
1,492.
Set a timeout in either Seconds (1 - 65,535), Minutes (1 - 1,092) or Hours (1 - 18). The
access point uses the defined timeout so it does not sit idle waiting for input from the
PPPoE client and server that may never come. The default setting is 10 minutes.
Select this option to ensure the point-to-point connection to the PPPoE client is
continuously maintained and not timed out. This setting is disabled by default.

needs of the PPPoE client connection, select the Create icon to define a new rule
configuration or the Edit icon to modify an existing rule. For more information, see
