server
DHCP This field displays whether the WAN interface is using a DHCP IP address or a static IP address.
Choices are:
Client - The WAN interface can obtain an IP address from a DHCP server.
None - The WAN interface is using a static IP address.
LAN Information
IP Address This is the current IP address of the VMG in the LAN.
IP Subnet Mask This is the current subnet mask in the LAN.
IPv6 Link Local This field displays the current link-local address of the VMG for the LAN interface.

System Status
System Up Time This field displays how long the VMG has been running since it last started up. The VMG starts
up when you plug it in, when you restart it (Maintenance > Reboot), or when you reset it.
Current Date/ This field displays the current date and time in the VMG. You can change this in
Time
Maintenance> Time Setting.
System Resource
CPU Usage This field displays what percentage of the VMG's processing ability is currently used. When
this percentage is close to 100%, the VMG is running at full load, and the throughput is not
going to improve anymore. If you want some applications to have more throughput, you
should turn off other applications (for example, using QoS; see
Memory Usage This field displays what percentage of the VMG's memory is currently used. Usually, this
percentage should not increase much. If memory usage does get close to 100%, the VMG is
probably becoming unstable, and you should restart the device. See
51, or turn off the device (unplug the power) for a few seconds.
Interface Status
Interface This column displays each interface the VMG has.
Status This field indicates the interface's use status.
For the LAN interface, this field displays Up when using the interface and NoLink when not
using the interface.
For the DSL interface, this field displays Down (line down), Up (line up or connected), Drop
(dropping a call) if you're using PPPoE encapsulation, and NoLink when not using the
