Sys ID eth1.
You cannot choose a network card that has already been configured
with a primary network address.
5.
Use the Type drop-down menu to select the PPTP over Ethernet
(PPPoA-DSL) connection interface type.
You will need the connection settings provided by your ISP to
configure the following settings.
Address: If you have not been assigned a static IP address by your
provider, keep the default Assigned by remote setting here.
If you have a static IP address, choose Static from the drop-down
menu and enter the address in the entry field.
Important Note:
If you wish to configure the Uplink Failover on Interface function,
observe the description of this function while entering the network!
Default Gateway: You should probably keep the default setting
Assigned by remote. Other possible values are Static and None.
Modem IP Address: Enter the IP address of your ADSL modem here.
This address will usually be provided by your ISP or the modem
hardware, and cannot be changed.
Example: 10.0.0.138 (with AonSpeed)
NIC IP Address: Enter the IP address of the network card on the
Security Manager which is attached to the modem here. This address
must be in the same subnet as the modem.
Example: 10.0.0.140 (with AonSpeed)
NIC Netmask: Enter the network mask to use here.
Example: 255.255.255.0 (with AonSpeed)
Address to Ping: In order to test the connection between the
Security Manager and the external network, you can enter an IP address of a host on the Internet (e.g., the DNS server of your ISP)
here. The Security Manager will send ping requests to this host: if no
answer is received, the connection will be broken.
Username: Enter the username, provided by your ISP.
Password: Enter the password, provided by your ISP.
Uplink Failover on Interface: This function will only be displayed if
the Assigned by remote or Static is selected in the Default
Gateway drop-down menu.
You can setup a failover on an interface to the Internet with the help
of a second Internet access and an additional network card. Please,
