3.5.4.4 DNS

Domain Name Service (DNS) stores and associates many types of information with
domain names.
Most importantly, it translates domain names (computer hostnames) to IP addresses. It
also lists mail exchanges servers accepting e-mail for each domain.
In providing a worldwide keyword-based redirection service, DNS is an essential
component of contemporary Internet use.
DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example,
the domain name www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4.
To configure the DNS address, click on the DNS link in the left navigation bar, show
as below.
Enter the maximum connection units of the PPPoE. The
MTU range is 1400 to 1492 bytes, by factory default is
1492.
This is the period of time required to keep the connection
alive if no packets are transmitted. If no packets are
transmitted between LAN port and WAN port or between
VC-200M/VC-200S and WAN, the connection is
disconnected after the "Maximum Idle Time"
If the Auto-reconnect check box is selected, the PPP
connection is re-established if there is some data that is
received from the upper layers to be transmitted on this
link.
