Hi Tim, Hope this offers some background and direction:

Adding links

4. For the Router Address List setting, in the Address box, type the IP address that is defined as a member of the default gateway pool. This IP address is also considered the IP address assigned to the router that belongs to the local area network.

5. In the Uplink Address box, type the IP address that identifies the router on the wide-area network. The Link Controller system uses this address to obtain SNMP statistics from the routers WAN interface.
