LABEL DESCRIPTION
System Setup
Mode The ZyXEL Device supports two modes, Router and Bridge . Usually, you should
use Router mode because it supports all the features discussed in this User’s
Guide. However, you might use Bridge mode in the following situation:
• There is another router in the network; and
• You only want to use the ZyXEL Device for VoIP and Internet access. You do
not want to use other features, such as the firewall, even with their default
settings.
See Chapter 4 on page 69 for more information about Bridge mode.
Note: If you change this setting and then click Apply , the device
automatically restarts. After the restart, the IP Address of the
ZyXEL Device (LAN port) depends on the mode. If the
ZyXEL Device is in
Router mode, use the IP Address in
Network > LAN > IP . If the ZyXEL Device is in Bridge mode,
use the Management IP Address in this screen.
System Name Enter your computer's "Computer Name". This is for identification purposes, but
some ISPs also check this field. This name can be up to 30 alphanumeric
characters long. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and underscores "_" are
accepted.
Domain Name Enter the domain name entry that is propagated to DHCP clients on the LAN. If you
leave this blank, the domain name obtained from the ISP is used. Use up to 38
alphanumeric characters. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and periods "."
are accepted.
