Secondary DNS server address This is the IP address of your
secondary DNS server. A secondary DNS server can provide
redundant DNS service to your computers. If the primary DNS
server is turned off, then your Qube 2 can use the secondary
DNS server with no loss of performance.
Note: Your primary DNS server and secondary DNS server
cannot not be on the same server.
•
Default gateway This is the IP address of the network
gateway, such as your router or firewall. A gateway address is
required to connect to systems outside the local network. It may
be left empty if you do not wish to access outside networks. If
you are using a modem, the word modem is entered in this field.
•
IP forwarding If this feature is enabled, IP packets from one
network interface can be routed to another.
3. Modify the one or all of the interface settings.
•
IP address This is the IP address of the primary interface
which connects to your Intranet. This field must be filled in.

The normal subnet mask for a class C network is 255.255.255.0.
Yours may differ depending on the size of your network.

Network Address Translation (NAT) If this feature is
enabled, network traffic on the internal network (the primary
network interface) sent through the Qube 2 is masqueraded as if
it were coming from the external interface (the modem or
secondary network interface).
For more information, see "Network Address Translation
(NAT)" on page 84.
•
Media Access Control (MAC) address The MAC address is
the ethernet hardware address of the primary network interface.
This hardware address is unique to every ethernet device; it
cannot be changed.
