DNS Server Selection	Select Automatic or Manual. if Automatic and IP assignment are set to DHCP, the list of DNS servers is retrieved from the DHCP server. if Automatic and IP assignment are set to Manual, the DNS server defaults to the gateway address. if Manual and IP assignment are set to DHCP, the list of DNS servers provided by the DHCP server will be ignored and the user must manually enter the DNS server. if Manual and IP assignment are set to Manual, the user must enter the IP address of the DNS.
DNS servers	Displays the current list of DNS servers associated with this connection. You can add additional DNS server in Manual mode using Add row
DNS priority	Set to Low, Medium, or High. The default is Medium. If multiple connections are active, the DNS server from the connection with the highest DNS priority is used.

Last connection	Displays the local time of the last successful Ethernet connection, if applicable.
Status message	Displays the current connectivity status: This connection is active means that this connection is running. This connection failed means the last attempt to connect failed. This connection is configured but inactive means the user configured this connection, but it's currently inactive. For example, the Ethernet cable is not connected, WiFi is disconnected and so on. This connection is not configured means this connection needs additional configuration before it can be used. New configuration will be applied on 'Finish Registration' means the connection was pre-configured by the user, but will be activated only when the user logs out of the server by clicking the Finish Registration button in the Advanced Settings page.
Update Now	The currently displayed configuration will be applied now.
Update on Finish	The currently displayed configuration will be saved, but will only be applied after disconnecting from the server specified in Advanced Settings by clicking the Finish Registration button.
