 Chapter 26 Remote Node Setup

P-793H User’s Guide

Move the cursor to the field Edit Filter Sets in menu 11.1, and then press [SPACE BAR] to 
set the value to Yes. Press [ENTER] to open Menu 11.1.5 - Remote Node Filter.
Use this menu to specify the filter set(s) to apply to the incoming and outgoing traffic between 
this remote node and the ZyXEL Device to prevent certain packets from triggering calls. You 
can specify up to 4 filter sets separated by commas, for example, 1, 5, 9, 12, in each filter field. 
Note that spaces are accepted in this field. For more information on defining the filters, please 
refer to 

. For PPPoE or PPTP encapsulation, you have the additional 

option of specifying remote node call filter sets.

Version

Select which version of RIP the ZyXEL Device uses when it sends or receives 

information on the subnet.
RIP-1 - The ZyXEL Device uses RIPv1 to exchange routing information.
RIP-2B - The ZyXEL Device broadcasts RIPv2 to exchange routing 

information.
RIP-2M - The ZyXEL Device multicasts RIPv2 to exchange routing information.

Multicast

You do not have to enable multicasting to use RIP-2M. (See RIP Version.)
Select which version of IGMP the ZyXEL Device uses to support multicasting 

on this port. Multicasting only sends packets to some computers and is an 

alternative to unicasting (sending packets to one computer) and broadcasting 

(sending packets to every computer).
None - The ZyXEL Device does not support multicasting.
IGMP-v1 - The ZyXEL Device supports IGMP version 1.
IGMP-v2 - The ZyXEL Device supports IGMP version 2.
Multicasting can improve overall network performance. However, it requires 

extra processing and generates more network traffic. In addition, other 

computers have to support the same version of IGMP.

IP Policies

You can apply up to four policy routes for this remote node. Configure the 

policy routes in menu 25 first. See 

 for information 

about policy routes.

Bridge Options

Ethernet Addr 

Timeout(min)

This field is enabled if Bridge is Yes in SMT 

. Type the time (in minutes) for the ZyXEL Device to retain the 

Ethernet address information in its internal tables while the line is down. If this 

information is retained, your ZyXEL Device will not have to recompile the 

tables when the line comes back up.

Once you have completed filling in this menu, press [ENTER] at the message “Press ENTER to 

Confirm...” to save your configuration and return to menu 11.1, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
