4. Click the WAN2 ISP Settings tab (UTM25 only).
5. Repeat the previous steps to automatically detect and configure the WAN2 Internet connection
(UTM25 only).
6. Open the WAN Status window and verify a successful connection
If your WAN ISP configuration was successful, you can skip ahead to “Configuring the WAN
Mode (Required for the UTM25’s Dual WAN Mode)” on page 3-9.
If one or both automatic WAN ISP configurations failed, you can attempt a manual configuration
as described in the following section, or see “Troubleshooting the ISP Connection” on page 12-5.
Setting the UTM’s MAC Address
Each computer or router on your network has a unique 48-bit local Ethernet address. This is also
referred to as the computer’s Media Access Control (MAC) address. The default is set to Use
Default Address. If your ISP requires MAC authentication and another MAC address has been
previously registered with your ISP, then you must enter that address. Setting the UTM’s MAC
address is controlled through the Advanced options on UTM10’s WAN ISP Settings screen or the
UTM25’s WAN1 ISP Settings and WAN2 ISP Settings screen (see“Configuring Advanced WAN
Options” on page 3-22).
Manually Configuring the Internet Connection
Unless your ISP automatically assigns your configuration via DHCP, you need to obtain
configuration parameters from your ISP in order to manually establish an Internet connection. The
necessary parameters for various connection types are listed in Table 3-1 on page 3-4.
Note: If the configuration process was successful, you are connected to the Internet
through WAN port 1. If you intend to use the dual WAN capabilities of the
UTM25, continue with the configuration process for WAN port 2.
Note: For more information about the WAN Connection Status screen, see “Viewing
the WAN Ports Status” on page 11-27.
