outgoing calls. Options are:
AUTO
- Your Device accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by
this remote node.
PAP

Gateway IP address
and
Subnet Mask
fields that display. The
subnet mask must be smaller than C class (255.255.255.0).
Select
Assign Public IP to LAN PCs by DHCP
to have the Device
give the LAN DHCP clients public IP addresses. LAN clients can still
configure static private IP addresses and access the Internet.
