IP Assignment For the WAN, if the LAN-Cell gets its IP address automatically from an ISP, this
displays DHCP client when you’re using Ethernet encapsulation and IPCP Client
when you’re using PPPoE or PPTP encapsulation. Static displays if the WAN
port is using a manually entered static (fixed) IP address.
For the LAN, WLAN or DMZ, DHCP server displays when the LAN-Cell is set to
automatically give IP address information to the computers connected to the LAN.
DHCP relay displays when the LAN-Cell is set to forward IP address assignment
requests to another DHCP server. Static displays if the LAN port is using a
manually entered static (fixed) IP address. In this case, you must have another
DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers must be manually configured.
For the dial backup port, this shows N/A when dial backup is disabled and IPCP
client when dial backup is enabled.
Renew If you are using Ethernet encapsulation and the WAN port is configured to get the
IP address automatically from the ISP, click Renew to release the WAN port’s
dynamically assigned IP address and get the IP address afresh. Click Dial to dial
up the PPTP, PPPoE or dial backup connection. Click Drop to disconnect the
PPTP, PPPoE, 3G WAN or dial backup connection.

Click the reset link and OK in the pop-up screen to clear all counters in the
Remaining Budget Bytes and Remaining Budget Time fields.
Remaining Budget
