Description
The IP address and network mask you want to assign
to the interface. If the interface will be used for
bridging with your ISP and you will not be using the
Best Data DSL542 as a router on your LAN, then you
do not need to specify IP information. If you enable
DHCP for this interface, then the Configured IP
address will serve only as a request to the DHCP
server. The actual address that is assigned by the
ISP may differ if this address is not available.
When checked, 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.
Indicates whether the Best Data DSL542 should use
the IP address assigned to this interface, if any, as its
default route for your LAN. This can be Enable or
Disable. See Chapter 8 for an explanation of default
routes.
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.
