Configuration Variables
23
DNS IP Address
Domain Name Service (DNS) servers are used on the internet to
maintain information about which Uniform Resource Locator
(URL) name relates to which internet IP address. For example,
the URL: WWW.CNN.COM, is a pseudonym for the IP address:
207.25.71.25. DNS entries allow users to access resources using
URLs instead of IPs.
Options:
Any internet DNS server IP address available
through the WAN connection. This address should be pro-
vided by your ISP. (Note that without a DNS server IP,
internet sites will only be available using IP addresses and
will not be available using URLs.)
Default Value:
0.0.0.0
Must Be User Modified?
Yes.
Description:
A Domain Name Service (DNS) server ad-
dress is used to translate URLs into their corresponding IP
addresses.
Maximum Idle Time
This variable allows you to set an idle time after which the inter-
net server will automatically disconnect the WAN connection.
Setting an idle time lets you keep from staying logged-in to your
ISP when no one is using the internet.
Options:
A time duration from 3 to 65535 minutes.
Default Value:
30 minutes
Must Be User Modified?
No.
