The connection method and details are determined by, and can be obtained from the ISP.
See the following sections for details on each connection method. DNS server settings can
be configured in the corresponding menu for each connection method.
Routing Mode
This field shows that NAT (network address translation) will be applied to the traffic routed
over this WAN connection. IP Forwarding is available when you click the link in the help
icon.
Hostname
(Optional)
If your service provider's DHCP server requires you to supply a hostname value upon
acquiring an IP address, you may enter the value here. If your service provider does not
provide you with a hostname, you can safely bypass this option.
Management IP
Address
Management IP Address is available for configuration when you click the link in the help
icon via the Hostname.
This option allows you to configure the management IP address for the DHCP WAN
connection.
DNS Servers
Each ISP may provide a set of DNS servers for DNS lookups. This setting specifies the
DNS (Domain Name System) servers to be used when a DNS lookup is routed through this
connection.
Selecting Obtain DNS server address automatically results in the DNS servers assigned by
the WAN DHCP server being used for outbound DNS lookups over the connection. (The
DNS servers are obtained along with the WAN IP address assigned by the DHCP server.)
When the following DNS server address(es) is selected, you may enter custom DNS server
addresses for this WAN connection into the DNS server 1 and DNS server 2 fields.
