2 Click the General tab and use the following guidelines:
a To set the default gateway, select the type of network interface from the available options.
1 Single Network support— Either wireless or wired network is connected.
• ENET — Click this option, if you want set up the Ethernet Wired Network Connection.
• WLAN — Click this option, if you want set up the Wireless Network Connection.
• If the user use wireless network after selecting ENET connection or wired network after selecting WLAN connection,
then the system log "WLAN: set default gateway xx.xx.xx.xx" for rst case and "ENET: set default gateway xx.xx.xx.xx"
for second case are printed to ensure that the UI setting reects the actual usage.
• Use Static Name Servers— By default, this check box is not selected, and thin client fetches the server IP address
from DHCP. Select this check box to manually assign static IP addresses. If name servers are changed using GUI, INI or
link down/ up, then the details are displayed in Event Logs. In dynamic mode, the DNS/WINS can be merged from
Ethernet and Wireless, if network is not working.
2 Dual Network support — Both wireless and wired networks are connected. The default gateway is determined by the UI
settings.
NOTE
: The UI will not be changed automatically.
b Enter the URL address of the DNS Domain in the DNS Domain box.
c Enter the IP address of the DNS Server in the DNS Server box.
Use of DNS is optional. DNS allows you to specify remote systems by their host names rather than IP addresses. If a specic IP
address (instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it is used to make the connection. Enter the DNS Domain and the
network address of an available DNS Server. The function of the DNS Domain entry is to provide a default sux to be used in
name resolution. The values for these two boxes may be supplied by a DHCP server. If the DHCP server supplies these values,
they replace any locally congured values. If the DHCP server does not supply these values, the locally congured values will be
used.
NOTE
: You can enter upto 16 DNS Server addresses, separated by a semicolon, comma, or space. The rst
address is for the primary DNS server and the rest are secondary DNS servers or backup DNS servers.
d Enter the IP address of the WINS Server in the WINS Server box.
Use of WINS is optional. Enter the network address of an available WINS name server. WINS allows you to specify remote
systems by their host names rather than IP addresses. If a specic IP address (instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it
