Nameservers
In Dynamic mode, the IP addresses for the DNS servers are
assigned automatically by using DHCP. This option is only
available if you specified DHCP for the Connection Type.
In Manual mode, you must assign the IP addresses of the
DNS Nameservers that resolve domain names.
After you configure the wired settings, you must click Apply to apply the changes
and to save the settings. Changing some settings might cause the access point to
stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients temporarily
lose connectivity. We recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN traffic
is low.
On networks that use IEEE 802. 1 X, port-based network access control, a
supplicant (client) cannot gain access to the network until the 802. 1 X
authentication server grants access. If your network uses 802. 1 X, you must
configure the 802. 1 X authentication information that the access point can supply to
the authentication server.
To configure the access point 802. 1 X supplicant user name and password, click
the 802. 1 X Authentication tab and configure the fields shown in
