LABEL DESCRIPTION
DNS Servers
First, Second and Third
DNS Server
Select Obtained from ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server
information (and the WiMAX Modem's WAN IP address). Use the drop-down
list box to select a DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns in the field to
the right.
Select UserDefined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the
DNS server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose UserDefined,
but leave the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, UserDefined changes to None after
you click Apply. If you set a second choice to UserDefined, and enter the
same IP address, the second UserDefined changes to None after you click
Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. You must have
another DHCP server on your LAN, or else the computers must have their
DNS server addresses manually configured. If you do not configure a DNS
server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
RIP & Multicast Setup
RIP Direction Select the RIP direction from None, Both, In Only and Out Only.
RIP Version Select the RIP version from RIP-1, RIP-2B and RIP-2M.
Multicast IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to
establish membership in a multicast group. The WiMAX Modem supports
both IGMP version 1 (IGMP-v1) and IGMP-v2. Select None to disable it.
Windows Networking (NetBIOS over TCP/IP)
Allow between LAN
and WAN
Select this check box to forward NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the WAN
and from the WAN to the LAN. If your firewall is enabled with the default
policy set to block WAN to LAN traffic, you also need to enable the default
WAN to LAN firewall rule that forwards NetBIOS traffic.
Clear this check box to block all NetBIOS packets going from the LAN to the
WAN and from the WAN to the LAN.
Allow Trigger Dial Select this option to allow NetBIOS packets to initiate calls.
Apply Click to save your changes.
Reset Click to restore your previously saved settings.
