IP Address Sharing by NAT. The VPN firewall allows several networked PCs to share an
Internet account using only a single IP address, which may be statically or dynamically
assigned by your Internet service provider (ISP). This technique, known as NAT, allows the
use of an inexpensive single-user ISP account.

Automatic Configuration of Attached PCs by DHCP. The VPN firewall dynamically
assigns network configuration information, including IP, gateway, and domain name server
(DNS) addresses, to attached PCs on the LAN using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP). This feature greatly simplifies configuration of PCs on your local network.

DNS Proxy. When DHCP is enabled and no DNS addresses are specified, the firewall
provides its own address as a DNS server to the attached PCs. The firewall obtains actual DNS
addresses from the ISP during connection setup and forwards DNS requests from the LAN.

run a login program such as EnterNet or WinPOET on your PC.
