By clicking on the Net button on the Internet Services page, you can configure your system's network connections.
By selecting Network Routing, you can change which network interface the system uses as your route to the Internet. If you want to make your default route a PPP connection, you must first configure that connection -- see ``Using a modem to connect to the Internet''. You can also specify that your system is a gateway. If you configure your system as a gateway, it will forward data packets received on one interface to another interface if appropriate. Otherwise, all received data packets not destined for this system are discarded.
You can configure both inbound and outbound PPP connections by
selecting PPP Connections. The procedure for
adding and configuring PPP connections is described in
``Using a modem to connect to the Internet''.
