DESCRIPTION

Bridge Setup

IP Address

Type the IP address of your ZyWALL in dotted decimal notation.

IP Subnet Mask

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address.

Gateway IP Address

Enter the gateway IP address.

First/Second/Third DNS

Server

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 machine

before you can access it. The ZyWALL uses a system DNS server (in the

order you specify here) to resolve domain names for content filtering, the

time server, etc.
If you have the IP address(es) of the DNS server(s), enter the DNS server's

IP address(es) in the field(s) to the right.
