Chapter 7 Interfaces
Table 41 Configuration > Network > Interface > Ethernet > Edit (continued)
LABEL | DESCRIPTION | |
IP Pool Start | Enter the IP address from which the ZyWALL begins allocating IP addresses. If you | |
Address | want to assign a static IP address to a specific computer, use the Static DHCP Table. | |
| If this field is blank, the Pool Size must also be blank. In this case, the ZyWALL can | |
| assign every IP address allowed by the interface’s IP address and subnet mask, except | |
| for the first address (network address), last address (broadcast address) and the | |
| interface’s IP address. | |
|
| |
Pool Size | Enter the number of IP addresses to allocate. This number must be at least one and is | |
| limited by the interface’s Subnet Mask. For example, if the Subnet Mask is | |
| 255.255.255.0 and IP Pool Start Address is 10.10.10.10, the ZyWALL can allocate | |
| 10.10.10.10 to 10.10.10.254, or 245 IP addresses. | |
| If this field is blank, the IP Pool Start Address must also be blank. In this case, the | |
| ZyWALL can assign every IP address allowed by the interface’s IP address and subnet | |
| mask, except for the first address (network address), last address (broadcast address) | |
| and the interface’s IP address. | |
|
| |
First DNS | Specify the IP addresses up to three DNS servers for the DHCP clients to use. Use one | |
Server, Second | of the following ways to specify these IP addresses. | |
DNS Server, |
| |
Third DNS | Custom Defined - enter a static IP address. | |
Server | ||
| ||
| From ISP - select the DNS server that another interface received from its DHCP | |
| server. | |
| ZyWALL - the DHCP clients use the IP address of this interface and the ZyWALL works | |
| as a DNS relay. | |
|
| |
First WINS | Type the IP address of the WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) server that you | |
Server, Second | want to send to the DHCP clients. The WINS server keeps a mapping table of the | |
WINS Server | computer names on your network and the IP addresses that they are currently using. | |
| ||
|
| |
Default Router | If you set this interface to DHCP Server, you can select to use either the interface’s IP | |
| address or another IP address as the default router. This default router will become the | |
| DHCP clients’ default gateway. | |
| To use another IP address as the default router, select Custom Defined and enter the | |
| IP address. | |
|
| |
Lease time | Specify how long each computer can use the information (especially the IP address) | |
| before it has to request the information again. Choices are: | |
| infinite - select this if IP addresses never expire. | |
| days, hours, and minutes - select this to enter how long IP addresses are valid. | |
|
| |
Extended | This table is available if you selected DHCP server. | |
Options | Configure this table if you want to send more information to DHCP clients through | |
| ||
| DHCP packets. | |
