Chapter 4

Advanced Configuration

DHCP Server  Enter the DHCP server IP address to relay DHCP requests from the local network when the Gateway is in DHCP Relay mode. (This setting is not available for all encapsulation types.)

Starting IP Address  Enter a value for the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. Because the Gateway’s default IP address is 192.168.1.1, the Starting IP Address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.253. The default is 192.168.1.100.

Maximum Number of DHCP Users  Enter the maximum number of users (network devices) that can obtain an IP address. The number will vary depending on the starting IP address entered and cannot be greater than 253. The default is 50.

Client Lease Time  The Client Lease Time is the amount of time a network device will be allowed connection to the Gateway with its current dynamic IP address. Enter the number of minutes that the device will be “leased” this dynamic IP address. After the time is up, the device will be automatically assigned a new dynamic IP address. The default is 0 minutes, which means one day.

Static DNS 1-3 The Domain Name System (DNS) is how the Internet translates domain or website names into Internet addresses or URLs. At least one DNS server IP address is provided by your ISP. You can enter up to three DNS server IP addresses here. The Gateway will use these for quicker access to functioning DNS servers.

WINS  The Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) converts NetBIOS names to IP addresses. If you use a WINS server, enter that server’s IP address here. Otherwise, leave this field blank.

Time Settings

Time Zone  Select the time zone in which your network functions.

Time Interval  Change how often the Gateway updates its time.

Automatically adjust clock for daylight saving time  Select this option if you want the Gateway to automatically adjust for daylight saving time.

Time Settings and Language

Language

Language  To use a different language, select one from the drop-down menu. The language of the web-based utility will change five seconds after you select another language.

Click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.

Setup > DDNS

The Gateway offers a Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) feature. DDNS lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address. It is useful when you are hosting your own website, FTP server, or other server behind the Gateway.

Before you can use this feature, you need to sign up for DDNS service with a DDNS service provider, www.dyndns.org or www.TZO.com. If you do not want to use this feature, keep the default, Disabled.

DDNS

DDNS Service

If your DDNS service is provided by DynDNS.org, then select DynDNS.org from the drop-down menu. If your DDNS service is provided by TZO, then select TZO.com. The features available on the DDNS screen will vary, depending on which DDNS service provider you use.

DynDNS.org

Setup > DDNS > DynDNS

Username  Enter the Username for your account. Password  Enter the Password for your account.

Host Name  Enter the DDNS URL assigned by the service.

Internet IP Address  The Internet IP address of the Gateway is displayed.

Status  Displays the status of the DDNS service connection. Connect  To manually trigger an update, click this button.

Click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
