number of hops a request can take before being disca rded, and enable flag.
The following commands are used to configure the entries:
set dhcp mode relay

set dhcp relay server2 <ip address> max_hops <count> enabled [YES | NO]

show dhcp relay
DNS A Domain Name Server (DNS) provides an IP address for a host computer for a
given Domain Name. A DNS Proxy receives requests and attemp ts to find an entry
in its local table s, and if one is n ot found, forwa rds the request to a remote server.
The remote DNS Server can be learned dynamically through PPP or can be
statically assigned.
The OfficeConnect Remote 812s DNS Proxy enables you to configu re remote DNS
Servers for specific Domains. For instance, assume you have two remote sites
configured, one to the Internet and the other to a corporate site which has a
domain name of 3com.com. Two DNS remote servers can be configured, o ne
which uses the corporate site for 3com.com and the other to use the Internet as
the default.
The OfficeConnect Remote 812s DNS Proxy also enables you to configure Static
Host entries. The static table is checked first before the DNS request is forwarded
on to the remote server. If the OfficeConnect Remote 812 was fir s t booted in
DHCP Smart Mode, an entry, ocrdsl-3com.com, was automatically added to the
table which maps to the OfficeConnect Remote 812s local LAN IP address. This
entry was added to simplify access to the OfficeConnect Remote 812.
Remember to save your configuration using the save all command before
rebooting your OfficeConnect Remot e 812 so that your changes will be writt en to
permanent FLASH memory.
