6.4 Ethernet WAN

Use this screen to have a LAN port act as an Ethernet WAN port. You can restore it back from a WAN
port to a LAN port. Click the switch to set up the configuration. When the switch goes to the right, the
LAN port acts as an Ethernet WAN port. Otherwise, the LAN port remains as a LAN port. The Ethernet
WAN connection has priority over the DSL connection. Click Apply to save your changes back to the
Zyxel Device.

DESCRIPTION
Configure this field to test your Zyxel Device's WAN accessibility. Type the IP address
of a reliable nearby computer (for example, your ISP's DNS server address).
Note: If you activate either traffic redirect or dial backup, you must
configure at least one IP address here. When using a WAN backup
connection, the Zyxel Device periodically pings the addresses
configured here and uses the other WAN backup connection (if
configured) if there is no response.
When the Zyxel Device is using a lower priority connection (usually a WAN backup
connection), it periodically checks to whether or not it can use a higher priority
connection. Type the number of seconds (30 recommended) for the Zyxel Device to
wait between checks. Allow more time if your destination IP address handles lots of
traffic.
Type the number of times (2 recommended) that your Zyxel Device may ping the IP
addresses configured in the WAN Backup Enable field without getting a response
before switching to a WAN backup connection (or a different WAN backup
connection).
