Secondary DNS 
Server
Enter the second DNS server address assigned by the ISP.
Routing Feature (This is available only when you select IPv4 Only or IPv4 IPv6 DualStack in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.)
NAT Click this switch to activate or deactivate NAT on this connection. When the switch goes to the 
right  , the function is enabled. Otherwise, it is not.
IGMP Proxy Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) is a network-layer protocol used to establish 
membership in a Multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
Click this switch to have the Zyxel Device act as an IGMP proxy on this connection. When the 
switch goes to the right  , the function is enabled. Otherwise, it’s not.
This allows the Zyxel Device to get subscribing information and maintain a joined member list for 
each multicast group. It can reduce multicast traffic significantly.
Apply as Default 
Gateway
Click this switch to have the Zyxel Device use the WAN interface of this connection as the system 
default gateway. When the switch goes to the right  , the function is enabled. Otherwise, it is 
not.
Fullcone NAT 
Enable
Click this switch to enable or disable full cone NAT on this connection. When the switch goes to 
the right  , the function is enabled. Otherwise, it’s not.
This field is available only when you activate NAT.
In full cone NAT, the Zyxel Device maps all outgoing packets from an internal IP address and port 
to a single IP address and port on the external network. The Zyxel Device also maps packets 
coming to that external IP address and port to the internal IP address and port.
DHCPC Options (This is available only when you select IPv4 Only or IPv4 IPv6 DualStack in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.)
Request Options Select Option 43 to have the Zyxel Device automatically add vendor specific information in the 
DHCP packets to request the vendor specific options from the DHCP server.
Select Option 120 to have the Zyxel Device get the IP address or a fully-qualified domain name 
of SIP server from DHCP.
Select Option 121 to have the Zyxel Device push static routes to clients.

option 61 Select this and enter any string that identifies the device.
IAID Enter the Identity Association Identifier (IAID) of the device, for example, the WAN connection 
index number.
DUID Enter the hardware type, a time value and the MAC address of the device.
option 125 Select this to have the Zyxel Device automatically generate and add vendor specific 
parameters in the DHCP discovery packets that go to the DHCP server.
IPv6 Address (This is available only when you select IPv4 IPv6 DualStack or IPv6 Only in the IPv4/IPv6 Mode field.)
Obtain an IPv6 
Address 
Automatically
Select Obtain an IPv6 Address Automatically if you want to have the Zyxel Device use the IPv6 
prefix from the connected router’s Router Advertisement (RA) to generate an IPv6 address.
Static IPv6

Select Static IPv6 Address if you have a fixed IPv6 address assigned by your ISP. When you select 
this, the following fields appear.
