Verizon GT784WNV User Manual page 73

WAN IP Address allows manual set up of the WAN IP address of the Gateway,
which is the Gateway's connection to the service provider and the Internet.
Do not make changes to this screen unless instructed to do so by your service
provider. Making changes to the settings in this screen could cause problems
with the Gateway's connection to the service provider.
Note: Some DSL providers use PPPoE to establish communication with an
end user. Other types of broadband Internet connections (such as fixed point
wireless) may use either DHCP or static IP address. If unsure which connection is
present, check with Verizon before continuing.
To make changes to WAN IP Settings:
1.
Select the ISP protocol, depending on the type of connection the ISP uses.
Consult the service provider for more information.
2.
If using PPPoE was selected in step 1, enter the user name and password in
the appropriate text boxes. If one of the RFC connections was selected, enter
the information requested under Step 2.
3.
Select the IP type. If "Single Static IP Address" was selected, enter the IP
address in the "Single Static IP" text box. If "Multiple Static IP Addresses" was
selected, enter the designated gateway IP address and subnet mask address
in the "Gateway Address" and "Subnet Mask" text boxes, respectively.
4.
Enable Public/Private IP Addressing. This feature is used in conjunction
with Multiple Static IP Addresses. When selected, the Gateway uses NAT
for private IP addressing for the LAN, allowing both public and private IP
addressing to be configured to the LAN simultaneously, while the DHCP
server is reserved for private IP addressing. All computers using public IP
addresses must have the public IP addresses statically assigned.
5.
Select the DNS type. If static DNS address was selected, enter the primary
DNS address and, optionally, the secondary DNS address in the appropriate
text boxes.
6.
Enable or disable the IGMP proxy by clicking the appropriate radio button
below step 5.
When finished, click Apply to save changes.
