6.7 Traffic Redirect

Traffic redirect forwards traffic to a backup gateway when the ZyXEL Device cannot connect
to the Internet. An example is shown in the figure below.

Figure 20 Traffic Redirect Example

PPPoE

Passthrough
(PPPoE

encapsulation only)

This field is available when you select PPPoE encapsulation.
In addition to the ZyXEL Device'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 ZyXEL Device. 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.

Subnet Mask
(ENET ENCAP

encapsulation only)

Enter a subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.
Refer to

Appendix C on page 141

to calculate a subnet mask If you are

implementing subnetting.

ENET ENCAP

Gateway
(ENET ENCAP

encapsulation only)

You must specify a gateway IP address (supplied by your ISP) when you select

ENET ENCAP in the Encapsulation field

Zero Configuration

This feature is not applicable/available when you configure the ZyXEL Device to

use a static WAN IP address or in bridge mode.
Select Yes to set the ZyXEL Device 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 ZyXEL

Device for Internet access.
