Configuring Network Settings 
This section contains details for configuring network-related information. The network settings options are 
listed below.  
  
Activate and control RIP functionality. Using RIP, the Router is able to determine the 
shortest distance between two points on the network based on the addresses of the 
originating devices. 
  
Control WAN-side access to LAN-side servers through private IP addressing.   
Configure and control UPnP interoperability and security.  
Configure the Router as a true WAN/LAN bridge.   
  
Specify server ports used by common applications such as HTTP (Web site traffic), FTP, 
and Telnet. 
Set up Dynamic DNS. Dynamic DNS translates IP addresses into alphanumeric names. 
For example, an IP address of 333.136.249.80 could be translated into siemens.com.
