Action
This field displays the current registration status of the SIP account. You
have to register SIP accounts with a SIP server to use VoIP.
If the SIP account is already registered with the SIP server,
Click
Unregister
to delete the SIP account’s registration in the SIP
server. This does not cancel your SIP account, but it deletes the
mapping between your SIP identity and your IP address or domain
name.
The second field displays
Registered
.
If the SIP account is not registered with the SIP server,
Click
Register
to have the ZyXEL Device attempt to register the SIP
account with the SIP server.
The second field displays the reason the account is not registered.
Inactive
- The SIP account is not active. You can activate it in
VoIP >
SIP > SIP Settings
.
Register Fail
- The last time the ZyXEL Device tried to register the SIP
account with the SIP server, the attempt failed. The ZyXEL Device
automatically tries to register the SIP account when you turn on the
ZyXEL Device or when you activate it.
Account
Status
This shows
Active
when the SIP account has been registered and ready
for use or
In-Active
when the SIP account is not yet registered.
URI
This field displays the account number and service domain of the SIP
account. You can change these in
VoIP > SIP > SIP Settings
.

Overview
This chapter describes how to configure WAN settings from the
Broadband
screen. Use this screen to configure your ZyXEL Device for Internet access.
A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another
network or the Internet. It connects your private networks (such as a LAN (Local
Area Network) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can
communicate with computers in other locations.

What You Need to Know
Encapsulation Method
Encapsulation is used to include data from an upper layer protocol into a lower
layer protocol. To set up a WAN connection to the Internet, you need to use the
same encapsulation method used by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). If your
ISP offers a dial-up Internet connection using PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) or PPPoA,
they should also provide a username and password (and service name) for user
authentication.

WAN IP Address
The WAN IP address is an IP address for the ZyXEL Device, which makes it
accessible from an outside network. It is used by the ZyXEL Device to
communicate with other devices in other networks. It can be static (fixed) or
dynamically assigned by the ISP each time the ZyXEL Device tries to access the
Internet.
If your ISP assigns you a static WAN IP address, they should also assign you the
subnet mask and DNS server IP address(es) (and a gateway IP address if you use
the Ethernet encapsulation method).
Multicast
Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1
sender - 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender - everybody on the network).
Multicast delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on the network - not everybody
and not just one.
IGMP
IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to
establish membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
There are three versions of IGMP. IGMP version 2 and 3 are improvements over
version 1, but IGMP version 1 is still in wide use.
Finding Out More
See
Section 5.3 on page 76
for technical background information on WAN.
5.1.2
Before You Begin
You need to know your Internet access settings such as encapsulation and WAN IP
address. Get this information from your ISP.
