Nortel Business Secure Router 222 Configuration — Basics
Using the MAC address screen, users can configure the MAC address of the WAN
port by either using the factory default or cloning the MAC address from a
computer on your LAN. Choose Factory Default to select the factory assigned
default MAC address.
Otherwise, click Spoof this computer's MAC address - IP Address and enter
the IP address of the computer on the LAN whose MAC address you are cloning.
After it is successfully configured, the address is copied to the rom file
(configuration file). It does not change unless you change the setting or upload a
different ROM file.
Traffic redirect
Traffic redirect forwards WAN traffic to a backup gateway when the Business
Secure Router cannot connect to the Internet through its normal gateway. Connect
the backup gateway on the WAN so that the Business Secure Router still provides
firewall protection. This feature is not available on all models.
Figure 29 Traffic Redirect WAN Setup
The network topology illustrated in Figure 30 avoids triangle route security issues
when the backup gateway is connected to the LAN. Use IP alias to configure the
LAN into two or three logical networks with the Business Secure Router itself as
the gateway for each LAN network. Put the protected LAN in one subnet (Subnet
1 in Figure 30) and the backup gateway in another subnet (Subnet 2). Configure a
LAN to LAN/Business Secure Router firewall rule that forwards packets from the
protected LAN (Subnet 1) to the backup gateway (Subnet 2).
