Interfaces

This is the port type. 
Click "+" to expand or "-" to collapse the IP alias drop-down lists.
Hold your cursor over an interface’s label to display the interface’s MAC address.
Click an interface’s label to go to the screen where you can configure settings for 

that interface.

Status

For the LAN, DMZ and WLAN ports, this displays the port speed and duplex 

setting. Ethernet port connections can be in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. Full-

duplex refers to a device's ability to send and receive simultaneously, while half-

duplex indicates that traffic can flow in only one direction at a time. The Ethernet 

port must use the same speed or duplex mode setting as the peer Ethernet port in 

order to connect.
For the WAN 1 and the Dial Backup ports, it displays the port speed and duplex 

setting if you’re using Ethernet encapsulation or the remote node name 

(configured through the SMT) for a PPP connection and Down (line is down or 

not connected), Idle (line (ppp) idle), Dial (starting to trigger a call) or Drop 

(dropping a call) if you’re using PPPoE encapsulation. 
For the WAN 2 interface, it displays Connected when the 3G connection is up, 

Connecting when the 3G card is trying to connect to a network but has not 

received a response from the base station, Ready to Connect when the 3G 

connection is idle, Initializing when the ZyWALL is configuring the 3G card with 

AT commands, Disconnecting when the ZyWALL is dropping the 3G connection 

or Down when the 3G connection is down.

IP/Netmask

This shows the port’s IP address and subnet mask.

IP Assignment 

For the WAN, if the ZyWALL gets its IP address automatically from an ISP, this 

displays DHCP client when you’re using Ethernet encapsulation and IPCP Client 

when you’re using PPPoE or PPTP encapsulation. Static displays if the WAN port 

is using a manually entered static (fixed) IP address.
For the LAN, WLAN or DMZ, DHCP server displays when the ZyWALL is set to 

automatically give IP address information to the computers connected to the LAN. 

DHCP relay displays when the ZyWALL is set to forward IP address assignment 

requests to another DHCP server. Static displays if the LAN port is using a 

manually entered static (fixed) IP address. In this case, you must have another 

DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured. 
For the dial backup port, this shows N/A when dial backup is disabled and IPCP 

client when dial backup is enabled.

Renew

If you are using Ethernet encapsulation and the WAN port is configured to get the 

IP address automatically from the ISP, click Renew to release the WAN port’s 

dynamically assigned IP address and get the IP address afresh. Click Dial to dial 

up the PPTP, PPPoE, 3G WAN or dial backup connection. Click Drop to 

disconnect the PPTP, PPPoE, 3G WAN or dial backup connection.

Security Services

Content Filter 

Expiration Date

This is the date the category-based content filtering service subscription expires. 

This displays License Inactive when the ZyWALL is not registered or the 

subscription service is not activated. Click the field label to go to the screen where 

you can update your service subscription. 

Web Site Blocked

This displays how many web site hits the ZyWALL has blocked since it last 

started up. Disable displays when the feature is not activated. Not Supported 

displays when the ZyWALL is not registered. Click the field label to go to the 

screen where you can enable this feature.
