Configuring for DSL-based Internet service

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) service is available from
various ISPs. It can provide always connected and extremely
fast (broadband) access to the Internet. You can connect the
Magnia SG30 to a DSL modem using its public Ethernet port.
When configuring the Magnia SG30 for a DSL Internet
connection, you will need information such as:

Whether your ISP has provided a specific IP address
(static IP), or whether your server will obtain a new IP
address each time it connects (DHCP). If you don’t know,
use DHCP or call your ISP.

Whether your ISP uses PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet) to
connect to its network. If so, you may need to enter an
account name and password.

If your ISP has given you a static IP, you will also need
the following information:

IP address

Subnet mask

Primary DNS Server

Secondary DNS Server (optional)

Default gateway (optional)
