WAN
The WAN section displays information about the Main and Backup WAN connections. The figure below is an example of the Mobile page:
[[File:{{{file_wan}}}]]
Field | Description |
---|---|
Interface | WAN type. Possible values are:
|
Type | [[{{{name}}}_Mobile#Mobile_Configuration|Connection type]] or [[{{{name}}}_WAN#Common_Configuration|protocol]]. The value displayed in this field is dependent on used WAN type. Possible values are:
|
IP address | Router's WAN IP address. |
WAN MAC | MAC address of the WAN network interface controller (WiFi radio or WAN Ethernet port). This field is only visible if main WAN is set to Wired or WiFi. |
Netmask | A netmask is used to define how "large" a network is by specifying which part of the IP address denotes the network and which part denotes the device. |
Gateway | Gateway of the default route - an IP address through which the router reaches the Internet. |
DNS | DNS servers used by the main WAN connection. |
Connected | Currently used WAN connection uptime. |
Ports | Displays an image of the router's front panel with highlighted Ethernet ports that are currently in use. |
WAN Failover Status | Displays the router's current WAN failover status. |
Refresh | Refreshes all information fields in the page. |
WAN settings can be customized via the Network → [[{{{name}}} WAN|WAN]] page.
