DESCRIPTION
The WAN connection's IP address identifies the ZyXEL Device on the Internet. If
the ISP did not give you a static IP address, select Obtain an IP address
automatically. The ISP automatically assigns the WAN connection an IP
address when it connects.
If the ISP gave you a static (fixed) IP address, select this option and enter the
connection's IP address and subnet mask.
The default is a neighboring router that helps the ZyXEL Device forward traffic to
its destination. If the ISP did not give you the IP address of the default gateway,
select Obtain default gateway automatically. The ISP automatically assigns
the WAN connection an IP address when it connects.
Select this option to use a specific default gateway. Either enter the gateway's
IP address or select the WAN interface to use to connect to it.
The ZyXEL Device uses a DNS server to resolve a domain name (find the
numeric IP address associated with the domain name). Select this option if the
ISP did not give you a specific DNS server IP address. The ISP automatically
assigns the DNS server IP addresses when the ZyXEL Device connects.
If the ISP gave you DNS server IP addresses, select this option and enter them
in the fields below.
