The System section of the interface contains general router functions. In this
section, you can:
configure WAN and LAN connections
configure IP services
enable the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain
Name System (DNS) servers
set the router's hostname and add entries to the DNS host table
configure Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) settings
You can also click Getting Started to display a help menu, or select System
Summary to display information about the router. Click Physical Interfaces
for a list of interfaces (including status and type) on your router.
The Router/Bridge section allows you to configure the router's bridging and
routing functions. You can set a default gateway, configure the IP interfaces,
set up quality of service (QoS) maps and routing protocols, and add entries to
the route table. You can also configure the router to act as a bridge and
participate in a spanning tree.
