WAN connection with PPPoE or IPoE.
Note: When the DSL PTM interface is in VLAN MUX mode, you can configure up to
eight connections over a DSL PTM interface on the ZyXEL Device. All WAN
connections share one MAC address.
When the DSL PTM interface is in MSC mode, you can have up to four WAN
connections and only one bridge connection. Each WAN connection has its
own MAC address.
