and Deny lists would be defined as follows:

• DenyList:
1. 192.255.255.192, 168.112.112.05

5.9.4. Static Route
The Static Route menu allows you to type in Linux routing commands that will be
automatically executed each time that the unit powers up or reboots. In the Text
Interface, the Static Route menu is accessed via the Network Configuration menu. In
the Web Browser Interface, the Static Route menu via the Network Configuration
flyout menu.
5.9.5. Domain Name Server
The DNS menu is used to select IP addresses for Domain Name Servers. When web
and network addresses are entered, the Domain Name Server interprets domain names
(e.g., www.yourcompanyname123.com), and translates them into IP addresses. Note
that if you don't define at least one DNS, then IP addresses must be used, rather than
domain names.
