Description
When [Enable], this setting instructs the device to accept
IP information assigned dynamically by your ISP's DHCP
server. If the interface will be used for bridging with your
ISP and you will not be routing data through it, leave this
checkbox unselected.
This field indicates whether the ADSL Barricade uses the
IP address assigned to this interface, if any, as its default
route for your LAN. Your system can have only one
default route.
The external IP address that the ADSL Barricade
communicates with via the EOA interface to gain
access to the Internet. This is typically an ISP server.
A green or red ball will display to indicate that the interface
is currently up or down, respectively. You cannot manually
enable or disable the interface; a red ball may indicate a
problem with the DSL connection.
This field indicats the icons you can click on to edit (
or delete ( ) the associated EOA interface.
