This I set on my explorer settings on windows how can i do these on my Linux boxes that is not running GUI interfaces?

Thanks Scott,
I really dont need it for browsing but for installing updates from internet using yum, rpm or to ping or trace an address on the internet. Is there any place I need to place such settings ?
Thanks.
