This interface will allow you to change the following settings:
Service Mode
•Acceleration Only – The most commonly used service mode and supports all deployment
modes.
•VPN + Acceleration – Creates a VPN tunnel between the WANO units in addition to
accelerating traffic. Only supports Gateway and Single-Arm deployment modes.
Deployment Mode
•Gateway – Separates each Ethernet port into their own network segment, requiring manual
configuration of static IP routes for communication between segments.
•Bridged – The most common deployment, allows the transparent passage of traffic between
either Eth0 (LAN) and Eth2 (WAN1) or Eth1 (DMZ) and Eth3 (WAN2) ports. Can only use
Acceleration Only service mode and requires a 3rd party to create a VPN tunnel for the
purposes of accelerating intra-site private traffic between units.
•Double-bridging – Allows transparent passage of traffic between both Eth0 (LAN) and Eth2
(WAN1) and Eth1 (DMZ) and Eth3 (WAN2) bridged pairs simultaneously. Can only use
Acceleration Only service mode and requires a 3rd party to create a VPN tunnel for the
purpose of accelerating intra-site private traffic between units.
•Single arm – For use with CDP/WCCP and where situating the WANO in-line is not desirable,
e.g. Data Centres.
Standard installation - Bridged Mode
The majority of deployments are WANO units running in Bridged mode. To configure your unit for
this mode please select Acceleration Only from Service Mode, choose Bridged from the
Deployment Mode dropdown box and enter the following information:
Logic Interface
•Working IP – The local IP address you wish to assign to the WANO unit.
•Subnet Mask – Subnet of your local IP address range.
•Default Gateway – The local IP address of your router or firewall acting as the gateway
between your local network and the internet.
•MTU – Maximum Transmission Unit, generally this is always 1500 (the default value) and
should only be changed if your network requires it. If unsure, leave at the default value.
DNS
•Primary DNS – The IP address of your primary DNS server.
•Secondardy DNS – The IP address of your secondary DNS server.
Note: If you wish to enable Exchange acceleration, at least one of these should be the IP address of the
DNS servers from your Windows domain.
Once you have entered the settings, click Save and Apply.
This action will reboot your WANO unit.
