3.4.5 WAN IP Address Assignment

Every computer on the Internet must have a unique IP address. If your networks are isolated
from the Internet, for instance, only between your two branch offices, you can assign any IP
addresses to the hosts without problems. However, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority
(IANA) has reserved the following three blocks of IP addresses specifically for private
networks.

DESCRIPTION
Select this option If your ISP did not assign you a fixed IP address. This is
the default selection. If you choose this option, skip directly to section 3.4.9.
Select this option if you were given IP address and/or DNS server settings
by the ISP. The fixed IP address should be in the same subnet as your
broadband modem or router.
