Ethernet WAN Connection - Disconnection sequence (since firmware 5.4)<br />

Connection:<br />

- Ethernet WAN interface is pulled up (the Link Led will lighten if a cable is connected)<br />

- Apply DNS server change if valid<br />

- Configure the Default gateway for the interface if valid<br />

Disconnection:<br />

- Remove the default gateway if it was configured during connection<br />

- Pull down the Ethernet WAN interface (the Link Led will go off)<br />

- Remove the DNS configuration if it has changed<br />

Since firmware 5.4, the WAN Link Led behavior depends on your configuration.<br />

It is not only hardware related.<br />

By default, the WAN Link Led is off even if a cable is plugged.<br />

<strong>General</strong> <strong>Reference</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> <strong>eWON</strong> Configuration<br />

Since firmware 6.2, the default communication configuration of the Ethernet WAN is static AND with the Internet "Maintain<br />

connection" enabled. This allow the WAN Link Led to be ON when you plug the cable.<br />

Ethernet WAN permanently activated (before firmware 5.4)<br />

Before revision 5.4, the WAN Ethernet interface was configured during <strong>eWON</strong> boot time. When the Internet connection was "activated" by the<br />

WAN management, the Interface configuration was not affected, only the gateway configuration was modified.<br />

Since version 5.4, the WAN Ethernet interface is managed like the PPP interface i.e. it is pulled up when activated and pulled down when<br />

deactivated.<br />

Consequently, the WAN Ethernet IP configuration can be changed and the new configuration will be applied the next time the interface goes up.<br />

3.3.4.2.5.3 PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol)<br />

In the <strong>eWON</strong>, the PPP is the Modem connection<br />

This PPP connection could<br />

- be an Incoming or Outgoing modem connection<br />

- update the default Gateway of the <strong>eWON</strong><br />

- be considered as a WAN<br />

Depending of the PPP connection type, the Gateway (GW) and/or the WAN are presents.<br />
