Cookbook Configuration

Internet: Select the Internet access mode after confirming with the ISP. You can select PPPoE, DHCP, or Static
IP.
PPPoE: Access the Internet by using the broadband account provided by the ISP.
DHCP: Access the Internet by using the dynamic IP address provided by the ISP.
Static IP: Access the Internet by using a static IP address provided by the ISP.
When Internet is set to Static IP, IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server are mandatory.
VLAN ID: The value ranges from 2 to 232 and 234 to 4090.
MTU: Maximum transmission unit (MTU) allowed by a WAN port. The default value is 1500 bytes. In some
scenarios, large data packets need to be rate-limited or prevented. As a result, the network speed is low or even
the network is disconnected. In this case, you can configure a small MTU.
MAC: ISPs may restrict Internet access from devices with unknown MAC addresses to ensure security. In this
case, you can change the MAC address of the WAN port.
Note
Changing the MAC address will disconnect the device from the network. You need to reconnect the device to
the network or restart the device. Therefore, exercise caution when performing this operation. You do not need
to change the default MAC address unless in special cases.
