Configuration
This feature is not applicable/available when you configure the P-660HWP-Dx to
use a static WAN IP address or in bridge mode.
Select Yes to set the P-660HWP-Dx to automatically detect the Internet connection
settings (such as the VCI/VPI numbers and the encapsulation method) from the
ISP and make the necessary configuration changes.
Select No to disable this feature. You must manually configure the P-660HWP-Dx
for Internet access.
PPPoE
Passthrough
This feature is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
In addition to the P-660HWP-Dx's built-in PPPoE client, you can enable PPPoE
pass through to allow up to ten hosts on the LAN to use PPPoE client software on
their computers to connect to the ISP via the P-660HWP-Dx. Each host can have a
separate account and a public WAN IP address.
PPPoE pass through is an alternative to NAT for application where NAT is not
appropriate.
Disable PPPoE pass through if you do not need to allow hosts on the LAN to use
PPPoE client software on their computers to connect to the ISP.
