5 - 266 WiNG 5.7.1 Access Point System Reference Guide
8. Define the following
Connection
settings for the PPPoE point-to-point connection with the PPPoE client:
9. Set the
Network Address Translation (NAT)
direction for the PPPoE configuration.
Network Address Translation
(NAT) converts an IP address in one network to a different IP address or set of IP addresses
in another network. The access point router maps its local (
Inside
) network addresses to WAN (
Outside
) IP addresses, and
translates the WAN IP addresses on incoming packets to local IP addresses. NAT is useful because it allows the
authentication of incoming and outgoing requests, and minimizes the number of WAN IP addresses needed when a range
of local IP addresses is mapped to each WAN IP address. The default setting is None (neither inside or outside).
10. Define the following
Security Settings
for the PPPoE configuration:
11. Use the spinner control to set the
PPPoE Default Route Priority
for the default route learnt using PPPoE.
Select from 1 - 8,000. The default setting is 2,000.
12. Select
OK
to save the changes to the PPPoE screen. Select
Reset
to revert to the last saved configuration. Saved
configurations are persistent across reloads.
Password
Provide the 64 character maximum password used for authentication by the PPPoE client.
Select
Show
to display the actual characters comprising the password.
Authentication Type
Use the drop-down menu to specify authentication type used by the PPPoE client, and
whose credentials must be shared by its peer access point. Supported authentication
options include
None
,
PAP
,
CHAP
,
MSCHAP
, and
MSCHAP-v2
.
Maximum Transmission
Unit (MTU)
Set the PPPoE client
Maximum Transmission Unit
(MTU) from 500 - 1,492. The MTU is the
largest physical packet size in bytes a network can transmit. Any messages larger than
the MTU are divided into smaller packets before being sent. A PPPoE client should be able
to maintain its point-to-point connection for this defined MTU size. The default MTU is
1,492.
Client Idle Timeout
Set a timeout in either
Seconds
(1 - 65,535),
Minutes
(1 - 1,092) or
Hours
(1 - 18). The
access point uses the defined timeout so it does not sit idle waiting for input from the
PPPoE client and server that may never come. The default setting is 10 minutes.
Keep Alive
Select this option to ensure the point-to-point connect to the PPPoE client is continuously
maintained and not timed out. This setting is disabled by default.
IPv4 Inbound Firewall
Rules
Use the drop-down menu to select a firewall (set of IP access connection rules) to apply
to the PPPoE client connection. If a firewall rule does not exist suiting the data protection
needs of the PPPoE client connection, select the
Create
icon to define a new rule
configuration or the
Edit
icon to modify an existing rule. For more information, see
.
VPN Crypto Map
Use the drop-down menu to apply an existing crypt map configuration to this PPPoE
interface.
