WAN Configuration
Allows you to change and configure WAN network parameters. If DHCP client IPv4 mode is selected,
then AP3400 board would automatically configure itself with parameters provided by your Internet Ser-
vice Provider (ISP).
Your AP3400 board has two interfaces added to the default WAN network - Ethernet 0 port and Ether-
net 1.
IPv4 mode - specify whether the device will be manually configured (Static mode) or dynamically
configured by the DHCP server of your ISP. IP addresses can either be retrieved from a DHCP server
of your ISP or configured manually:
– Static IP mode - the IP address, netmask and gateway must be specified manually.
– DHCP client mode - DHCP server dynamically assigns an IP address and other network con-
figuration parameters. Your internet service provider most likely supports DHCP configuration,
so plugging ethernet cable to the board's WAN port would automatically set up all the necessary
parameters.
Allow device access from WAN - when this option is selected, device WEB GUI and SSH would be
accessible from both the internet and from LAN network by using its WAN IP address. If this option is
not selected, then the WEB GUI and SSH would only be accessible from the LAN network. In order to
reach AP3400 GUI from the internet, you must have a public IP address provided by your ISP. Default
route metric - this option is only available when multiple WAN networks are created. The route metric
allows you to prioritize WAN networks, where 0 is the highest priority. When multiple WAN networks
are Active (connected and configured), then the one with highest priority would be considered "Main"
network, and the other networks would be "Backup".
DHCP Client In DHCP client mode, the IP address for this device will be assigned from the DHCP
server. You can access WEB GUI (Graphical User Interface) by typing that IP address into the web
browser's address bar.
