DESCRIPTION

First DNS Server

Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server

Second DNS

information (and the NBG-460N's WAN IP address). The field to the

right displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the ISP

Server

assigns.

 

Third DNS Server

Select User-Definedif you have the IP address of a DNS server.

 

Enter the DNS server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose

 

User-Defined, but leave the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined

 

changes to None after you click Apply. If you set a second choice to

 

User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-

 

Defined changes to None after you click Apply.

 

Select DNS Relay to have the NBG-460N act as a DNS proxy. The

 

NBG-460N's LAN IP address displays in the field to the right (read-

 

only). The NBG-460N tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the NBG-

 

460N itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a

 

DNS query to the NBG-460N, the NBG-460N forwards the query to the

 

NBG-460N's system DNS server (configured in the WAN > Internet

 

Connection screen) and relays the response back to the computer.

 

You can only select DNS Relay for one of the three servers; if you

 

select DNS Relay for a second or third DNS server, that choice

 

changes to None after you click Apply.

 

Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do

 

not configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a

 

computer in order to access it.

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the NBG-460N.

 

 

Reset

Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.

 

 

10.6 Client List Screen

The DHCP table shows current DHCP client information (including IP Address, Host Name and MAC Address) of network clients using the NBG-460N’s DHCP servers.

Configure this screen to always assign an IP address to a MAC address (and host name). Click Network > DHCP Server > Client List.

Note: You can also view a read-only client list by clicking the DHCP Table (Details...) hyperlink in the Status screen.
