IPCP subnet function allows you to obtain a subnet (IP address and
netmask), rather than an IP address. Check this box to enable the
function.

Router to automatically apply the subnet from IPCP subnet to DHCP
server. Then LAN clients can get the public IP address assigned by ISP,
rather than a private IP address of the local LAN.

route, this is used when you configure more than one PVC for the Router.
