Now you can enter the IP address(es) of your remote DHCP server(s), such as might be located in your
company's corporate headquarters. Each time you enter an IP address and press Return, an additional field
appears. You can enter up to four DHCP server addresses.
In the example above, DHCP requests from clients on the LAN will be relayed to the DHCP servers at IP
addresses 10.1.1.1, 20.1.1.1, 30.1.1.1, and 40.1.1.1.

Connection Profiles
Since you will probably only have a single connection to your ISP over the DSL link, you may not need to create
multiple connection profiles. Additional profiles may be useful for creating VPNs.
Connection Profiles define the line and networking protocols necessary for the gateway to make a remote
connection. A connection profile is like an address book entry describing how the gateway is to get to a remote
site, or how to recognize and authenticate a remote user connecting to the gateway. To create a new
Connection Profile, you navigate to the WAN Configuration screen from the Main Menu, and select Add
Connection Profile.
