• DNS The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet translates domain or website names into Internet addresses or URLs. Your ISP will provide you with at least one DNS Server IP Address. If you wish to use another, type that IP Address in one of these fields. You can type up to three DNS Server IP Addresses here. The Router will use these for quicker access to functioning DNS servers.

• WINS The Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) manages each PC’s interaction with the Internet. If you use a WINS server, enter that server’s IP Address here. Otherwise, left this blank.

• DHCP Clients Table When this button is clicked, a table similar to that shown in Figure 5-10 appears, displaying a list of PCs assigned IP address- es by the Router. Click the Refresh button to display the most current information. If you

wish to delete a client’s IP address, select that client by clicking the box to the right and click the Delete button.

Log

The Log tab, shown in Figure 5-11, provides you with a log of all incoming and outgoing URLs or IP addresses for your Internet connection.

To access activity logs, select the Enable option next to “Access Log”. This function can be disabled by clicking the Disable radio button.

With logging Enabled, you can choose to view temporary logs or have a per- manent record, using the Logviewer software. Temporary logs can be accessed from the Log tab by clicking either the Incoming Access Log or Outgoing Access Log buttons. The Incoming Access Log gives you a log of all the incoming Internet traffic while the Outgoing Access Log lists all the URLs and IP addresses of Internet sites that users on your network have accessed.

For a permanent record of these logs, Logviewer software must be used. This software is downloadable from the Linksys website at www.linksys.com. The Logviewer saves all incoming and outgoing activity as a permanent file on your PC’s hard drive. Next to “Send Log to”, enter the fixed IP address of the PC running the Logviewer software. The Router will now send updated logs to that PC.
