Multi WAN support on SMB Devices

All,

Is there any limit to configure the LAN ports as WAN ? the new 910 model has 16x 1GbE LAN ports

Locally managed SMB appliances (910, 7x0, 14x0) can support a maximum of 32 Internet connections. Multiple WAN interfaces (assigning LAN ports as WAN interfaces) are not supported for centrally managed gateways.

Ok , does it support PPPOE on these lan interfaces ?

Should be possible for one PPoE per LAN IF according to documentation...

Hi Albert,

Does this apply for R81 as well ? if yes, why do we need vDSL appliances at all ? for example, CPA-SG1570WDSL-AU.

is there any documentation on how to configure LAN ports as WAN ?

Thanks

Srini

I think the answer is obvious, some admins would prefer not to manage multiple devices Firewall & DSL modem.

R81.x for Spark appliances? The corresponding documentation is available here:

Interesting !

I thought we need at 1550 at least for Dual WAN. Did not realise we could repurpose LAN of smaller appliances like 1530.
