What are Public IP Address and Private IP Address
As the router plays a role to manage and further protect its LAN, it interconnects groups of
host PCs. Each of them has a private IP address assigned by the built-in DHCP server of the
Vigor router. The router itself will also use the default
private IP
address: 192.168.1.1 to
communicate with the local hosts. Meanwhile, Vigor router will communicate with other
network devices through a
public IP
address. When the data flow passing through, the
Network Address Translation (NAT) function of the router will dedicate to translate
public/private addresses, and the packets will be delivered to the correct host PC in the local
area network. Thus, all the host PCs can share a common Internet connection.
Get Your Public IP Address from ISP
In ADSL deployment, the PPP (Point to Point)-style authentication and authorization is
required for bridging customer premises equipment (CPE). Point to Point Protocol over
Ethernet (PPPoE) connects a network of hosts via an access device to a remote access
concentrator or aggregation concentrator. This implementation provides users with significant
ease of use. Meanwhile it provides access control, billing, and type of service according to
user requirement.
When a router begins to connect to your ISP, a serial of discovery process will occur to ask for
a connection. Then a session will be created. Your user ID and password is authenticated via
PAP
or
CHAP
with
RADIUS
authentication system. And your IP address, DNS server, and
other related information will usually be assigned by your ISP.
Below shows the menu items for Internet Access.
4.1.2 PPPoE
To choose PPPoE as the accessing protocol of the internet, please select
PPPoE
from the
Internet Access

WAN Connection
Detection
Such function allows you to verify whether network connection
is alive or not through ARP Detect or Ping Detect.
Mode
– Choose
ARP Detect
or
Ping Detect
for the system to
execute for WAN detection.
Ping IP
– If you choose Ping Detect as detection mode, you have
to type IP address in this field for pinging.
TTL (Time to Live)
– Displays value for your reference. TTL
value is set by telnet command.
PPP/MP Setup
PPP Authentication
– Select
PAP only
or
PAP or CHAP
for PPP.
If you want to connect to Internet all the time, you can check
Always On
.
Idle Timeout
– Set the timeout for breaking down the Internet after
passing through the time without any action.
IP Address
Assignment Method
(IPCP)
Usually ISP dynamically assigns IP address to you each time you
connect to it and request. In some case, your ISP provides service
to always assign you the same IP address whenever you request.
In this case, you can fill in this IP address in the Fixed IP field.
Please contact your ISP before you want to use this function.
WAN IP Alias
- If you have multiple public IP addresses and would
like to utilize them on the WAN interface, please use WAN IP Alias.
You can set up to 8 public IP addresses other than the current one
you are using. Notice that this setting is available for WAN1 only.

to activate them.
4.1.3 Static or Dynamic IP
For static IP mode, you usually receive a fixed public IP address or a public subnet, namely
multiple public IP addresses from your DSL or Cable ISP service providers. In most cases, a
Cable service provider will offer a fixed public IP, while a DSL service provider will offer a
public subnet. If you have a public subnet, you could assign an IP address or many IP address
to the WAN interface.
To use
Static or Dynamic IP
as the accessing protocol of the internet, please choose
Static or
Dynamic IP
mode from
Internet Access
menu. The following web page will be shown.
