Configuring Untangle Server's External IP Address (Standard Mode)
This topic is for Standard Mode only. If you are in Advanced Mode, go to Configuring Untangle Server's Interfaces (Advanced Mode).
To configure the Untangle Server's external IP Address:
- From the Navigation pane, choose Config > Networking.
- Click the Network tab.
- From the Config Type drop-down list, select how you want the Untangle Server to obtain its IP address:
- Dynamic. If selected, the Untangle Server uses the DHCP server to obtain network settings and displays them in the boxes below. You can request a renewal of the DHCP Lease via the Renew DHCP Lease button.
- Static. If selected, you must manually set the IP Address and Netmask. Configure the network settings as you would for any system on the network. Default Route (sometimes referred to as a gateway), primary DNS server and, optionally, a secondary DNS server are only configurable on the external interface.
- PPPoE. If selected, you've identified that your Internet Server Provider uses PPPoE for authentication—to authorize you to connect to the Internet. If you have PPPoE questions, go to PPPoE FAQs.
- Click the Save Settings button.
- Click the Run Connectivity Test button. The test reports its findings: success or failure.
