Interfaces
New Interfaces are enabled by default. To disable, toggle off Enable.
5. For Interface type, select IP Passthrough.
6. For Zone, select Internal.
7. For Device, select an Ethernet device or a Wi-Fi access point.
8. Add one or more interface that will be the source of the passed-through IP address:
a. Click to expand Source interfaces.
b. Click g to add a source interface.
c. Select the appropriate Interface.
d. Repeat for additional interfaces.
9. (Optional) Packet filtering is disabled by default. Toggle on to enable.
If packet filtering is disabled, traffic is allowed in both directions and it is the responsibility of
the external device to provide its own firewall.
10. (Optional) Allow all addresses is disabled by default. Toggle on to enable.
When enabled, this option allows forwarding between the source interface and devices
connected to this interface, which allows connected devices to forward and receive packets
without network address translation (NAT). This should normally be disabled unless it is
required for modem passthrough, because some cellular will disconnect modems that send
packets that are not from the carrier-assigned IP address.
11. Ancillary addressing is enabled by default, which provides an IPv4 address to the connected
device when the source address is not available.
a. For Ancillary address/netmask, type the IPv4 address and netmask to provide to the
connected device when the source address is not available.
b. For Ancillary gateway, type the IPv4 address of the network gateway to be used when the
connected device when the source address is not available.
c. Ancillary DNS redirect is enabled by default, which means resolves all DNS requests to
the connected device and redirects HTTP traffic to the device's web administration page.
12. For Server type, select the type of server to use to pass the IP address through to the client.
13. If PPPoE server is selected for Server type:
a. Click to expand PPPoE server.
b. For Service name, type the name of service to offer to the client.
c. For Access concentrator name, type the name of the access concentrator to report to the
client. If no name is provided, the host name is used.
d. For Authentication method, select the authentication method used to connect to the
remote peer.
