The Advanced PC Database Screen

This screen displays when the Advanced button on the PC Database screen is clicked. It provides more control than the standard PC Database screen. Use this screen to select a computer (such as for the DMZ PC). It eliminates the need to enter IP addresses and use fixed IP addresses on the wireless LAN.

Figure 29. The Advanced PC Database Screen

Computers that are DHCP clients are automatically added to the database, and updated as required. By default, non-server versions of Windows® act as DHCP clients; this setting is called, Obtain an IP address automatically. The APC 3-in-1 Wireless Mobile Router uses the hardware address to identify each computer, not the name or IP address. The hardware address can only change if the computer's network card or adapter is changed. Users do not need to use fixed (static) IP addresses on their LAN. However, they can add devices using fixed (static) IP addresses to the PC database if required.
