Gateway
A gateway is a piece of software or hardware that passes information
between networks. You'll see this term most often when you either
log in to an Internet site or when you're transient email between
different servers.
Obtain DNS from
DHCP
Enable this checked box when a DHCP server is installed on the
network and provide DNS service.
Primary DNS
When you send email or position a browser to an Internet domain
such as xxxxx.com, the domain name system translates the names
into IP addresses. The term refers to two things: the conventions for
naming hosts and the way the names are control across the Internet.
Secondary DNS
The same function as DNS1. It is optional.
HTTP Port
The device supports two HTTP ports. The first one is default port 80
and this port is fixed. This port is very useful for Intranet usage. The
second HTTP port is changeable. Users could assign the second
port number of http protocol, and the WAN users should follow the
port number to login. If the http port is not assigned as 80, users have
to add the port number in the back of IP address. For example:
http://192.168.0.20:8080
.
Therefore, the user can access the device by either
http://xx.xx.xx.xx/
, or
http://xx.xx.xx.xx:xxxx/
to access the device.
If multiple devices are installed on the LAN and also required to be
accessed from the WAN, then the HTTP Port can be assigned as the
virtual server port mapping to support multiple devices.
When the configuration is finished, please click “OK” to save and enable the
setting.
6.1.2. IPv6 Function
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is called the “IP Next Generation” (IPng), which is designed
to fix the shortcomings of IPv4, such as data security and maximum number of user addresses.
It is backward compatible and thus expected to slowly replace IPv4, with the two existing side
by side for many years.
