NOTE
Enabling QoS for routed IPTV service configurations will improve channel change
performance.
NOTE
802.1P (priority) and 802.1Q (VLAN tag) values will be set at the time of WAN Service
creation as detailed in, “
Creating the WAN Service
.”
Configuring the Layer 2 Interface (VDSL/PTM with VLAN Tags)
In some applications it may be necessary to segment the PTM WAN interface into separate VLANs.
A common application for a VLAN segmented WAN interface is bridged IPTV as detailed in the
Bridged IPTV Configuration
section.
To configure the layer 2 PTM interface to support VLAN
tagged traffic select “VLAN MUX Mode” for “Connection Mode” in step 4 of the “
Configuring the
Layer 2 Interface (VDSL/PTM)
” section.

Creating the WAN Service
WAN Services are created on top of previously created Layer 2 interfaces. To create a WAN service:
1.
Select
Advanced Setup -> WAN Service
and click Add.
2.
Select a previously created layer 2 interface from the drop down list and click Next.
3.
Select the
WAN Service type
PPP over Ethernet
or
IP over Ethernet
are appropriate
choices for routed WAN services. Bridged WAN services will be covered later in the
Bridged
IPTV Configuration
section.
Figure 14 WAN Service Configuration (With or Without VLAN Tagging Support)
NOTE
If VLAN tagging support is desired, set the 802.1p and 802.1q values appropriately.
802.1P: 0 is lowest priority, 7 is highest priority, -1 is unused
802.1Q: -1 indicates no VLAN tagging
NOTE
The SR-350N/NE and SR-500N/NE gateways support mixed VLAN tagged/untagged
traffic on the same WAN interface. Set the untagged WAN connection’s VLAN ID to
-1.

For IPoE WAN services
select “Obtain an IP address automatically” (DHCP) or select “Use
the following Static IP address
” and enter the “
WAN IP A
ddress”, “
WAN Subnet M
ask” and
WAN gateway IP.
” Click
Next.

If desired enable the firewall, NAT and IGMP Multicast.
IMPORTANT
For IPTV configurations (either bridged or routed)
as detailed in, “
Use Case: Setting
Up Wireless Distribution System (WDS)
When deployed in a larger home or office, a single wireless access point may not be
able to provide adequate Wi-Fi coverage. Wireless Distribution Systems (WDS)
provides a solution for this problem. WDS combines multiple gateways to act as a
single larger wireless access point allowing Wi-Fi clients to seamlessly roam all
access points plus provides wired access to the entire network.
Two or more SmartRG gateways can be configured for WDS operation. The example
below depicts a WDS deployment with three SmartRG gateways in a large home or
office
one primary gateway in the center of the building and one remote gateway
at either end of the building.

Figure 23 Wireless Distribution System
Configuring the SmartRG gateways for WDS operation requires the setting of WAN,
LAN and WIRELESS parameters on all gateways included in the WDS system.
To configure the WAN connections
1.
On the primary SmartRG gateway: configure the routed WAN connection
following the instructions in the “
Use Case: Creating WAN Connections for
Internet Access and Remote Management
” se
ction.
2.
On the remote SmartRG gateway(s): no WAN configuration is required as the
WAN connection is unused.
To configure the LAN interfaces
3.
On the primary SmartRG gateway:
a)
configure the LAN interface following the instructions in the “
Use Case:
Setting Up the LAN
” section.
b)
ensure the DHCP Server is ENABLED and set the End IP Address such that
enough LAN IP addresses are left for static allocation to the remote
gateway(s) included in the WDS system.
4.
On the remote SmartRG gateway(s):
a)
configure the LAN interface following the instructions in the “
Use Case:
Setting Up the LAN
” section.
b)
ensure the LAN IPaddress(es) are assigned from the remaining IP addresses
