This menu displays the My WAN Addr field for PPPoE and PPTP encapsulations and 
Gateway IP Addr field for Ethernet encapsulation.  The following table describes the fields 
in this menu.

Table 98   Remote Node Network Layer Options

IP Address 

Assignment

If your ISP did not assign you an explicit IP address, press [SPACE BAR] and then 

[ENTER] to select Dynamic; otherwise select Static and enter the IP address & 

subnet mask in the following fields.

(Rem) IP 

Address

If you have a static IP Assignment, enter the IP address assigned to you by your ISP.

(Rem) IP 

Subnet Mask

If you have a static IP Assignment, enter the subnet mask assigned to you.

Gateway IP 

Addr

This field is applicable to Ethernet encapsulation only. Enter the gateway IP address 

assigned to you if you are using a static IP address.

My WAN Addr

This field is applicable to PPPoE and PPTP encapsulations only. Some 

implementations, especially the UNIX derivatives, require the WAN link to have a 

separate IP network number from the LAN and each end must have a unique 

address within the WAN network number. If this is the case, enter the IP address 

assigned to the WAN port of your ZyAIR.
Note that this is the address assigned to your local ZyAIR, not the remote router.

Network 

Address 

Translation

Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol 

address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local 

network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a public 

IP address used on the Internet). 
Choose None to disable NAT.
Choose SUA Only if you have a single public IP address. SUA (Single User Account) 

is a subset of NAT that supports two types of mapping: Many-to-One and Server. 
Choose Full Feature if you have multiple public IP addresses. Full Feature mapping 

types include: One-to-One, Many-to-One (SUA/PAT), Many-to-Many Overload, 

Many- One-to-One and Server. When you select Full Feature you must configure at 

least one address mapping set! 
See the NAT chapter for a full discussion on this feature.

Metric

Enter a number from 1 to 15 to set this route’s priority among the ZyAIR’s routes (see 

the Metric section in the WAN and Dial Backup Setup chapter) The smaller the 

number, the higher priority the route has.
