This is used to define the device IP classification for the chosen IP address

range. 255.255.255.0 is a typical net mask value for Class C networks. Generally it is

provided by your ISP.

Default Gateway:

This is the IP address of the host router that resides on the external

network and provides the point of connection to the next hop towards the Internet. This can

be a DSL modem, Cable modem, or a WISP gateway router. The router will direct all the

packets to the gateway if the destination host is not within the local network.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is an Internet “phone book”, which

translates domain names to IP addresses. These fields identify the server IP addresses

where the DNS requested are forwarded by this router.

Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a virtual private and secure connection

between two systems that enables encapsulated data transport. It replies on two widely

accepted standards: PPP and Ethernet. It connects users through an Ethernet to the

Internet with a common broadband medium, such as wireless device or cable modem. All

the users over the Ethernet can share a common connection. If you use ADSL virtual

dial-up to connect Internet, please choose this option.
