modem or router.

Type the subnet mask assigned to you by your ISP (if given).

Connection ID
Enter the connection ID or connection name in this field. It must follow the "c:id" and
"n:name" format. For example, C:12 or N:My ISP.

WAN Interface
Setup
WAN Interface
This displays the identity of the interface you configure to connect with your ISP.
Zone
This field displays to which security zone this interface and Internet connection will
belong.
IP Address
This field is read-only when the WAN interface uses a dynamic IP address. If your WAN
interface uses a static IP address, enter it in this field.
First DNS
Server
Second DNS
Server
These fields only display for an interface with a static IP address. Enter the DNS server
IP address(es) in the field(s) to the right.
Leave the field as 0.0.0.0 if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not
configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order to access
it.
DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP
address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because without it, you
must know the IP address of a computer before you can access it. The UAG uses a
system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve domain names for VPN,
DDNS and the time server.
