Select which type of traffic (Data, VoIP, Management, and/or IPTV) can use this
WAN interface.
Select Enable WAN Connection Limit to limit the number of connections for a
service type.
If you select Enable WAN Connection Limit, you can specify the maximum number

Internet Control Message Protocol is a message control and error-reporting protocol
between a host server and a gateway to the Internet. ICMP uses Internet Protocol
(IP) datagrams, but the messages are processed by the TCP/IP software and directly
apparent to the application user.

the GPON Device will not respond to any incoming Ping requests.

WAN.
The following DHCP Option 60, 61, and 125 fields are available only when you select

requests that the GPON Device sends to a DHCP server when getting a WAN IP
address.
Enter the Vendor Class Identifier (Option 60), such as the type of the hardware or
firmware.
Select this to identify the GPON Device in DHCP requests that the GPON Device sends
to a DHCP server when getting a WAN IP address.
If Hexadecimal is selected, you can enter the GPON Device's hardware address, that
is the MAC address in this field using hexadecimal characters.
If String is selected, enter a string to identify the GPON Device using alphanumeric
characters.
Select this to add vendor specific information to DHCP requests that the GPON Device
sends to a DHCP server when getting a WAN IP address.
