internal network.
The Internal interface functions as a switch, allowing up to four devices to be
connected to the internal network and the internal interface.
2 Connect the WAN1 interface to the Internet.
Connect to the public switch or router provided by your Internet Service Provider. If
you are a DSL or cable subscriber, connect the WAN1 interface to the internal or LAN
connection of your DSL or cable modem.
3 Optionally connect the WAN2 interface to the Internet.
Connect to the public switch or router, usually provided by a different Internet Service
Provider. If you are a DSL or cable subscriber, connect the WAN2 interface to the

You can use a DMZ network to provide access from the Internet to a web server or
other server without installing the servers on your internal network.
