Default Route This field indicates whether the ADSL Barricade
should use the IP address assigned to this
connection as its default route. It can be [Enable]
or [Disable]. See Quick Start on page 7 for an
explanation of default routes.
Use DHCP When set to [Enable], the device will acquire
additional IP information from the ISP's DHCP
server. The PPP connection itself acquires the
device's IP address, mask, DNS address, and
default gateway address. With the DHCP enabled,
the device will acquire IP addresses for other
various server types (WINS, SMTP, POP3, etc. -
these server types are listed on the [DHCP Server
Configuration] page).
Use DNS When set to [Enable], the DNS address learned
through the PPP connection will be distributed to
clients of the device's DHCP server. This option is
useful only when the ADSL Barricade
is configured
to act as a DHCP Server for your LAN.
When set to
[Disable], LAN hosts will use the DNS address
preconfigured in the DHCP pool (see Configuring
DHCP Server on page 51) and in the DNS feature.
Oper. Status Ths field indicates whether the link is currently up
or down or if a specific type of data exchange is
under way (e.g., password authorization or
DHCP).
