TW100-BRV204 User Guide

PC Database

The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC). It elimi- nates the need to enter IP addresses. Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on your LAN.

PC Database Screen

An example PC Database screen is shown below.

Figure 92: PC Database

PCs which 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 TW100-BRV204 uses the "Hardware Address" to identify each PC, not the name or IP address. The "Hardware Address" can only change if you change the PC's network card or adapter.

This system means you do NOT need to use Fixed (static) IP addresses on your LAN. However, you can add PCs using Fixed (static) IP Addresses to the PC database if re- quired.
