Configuring the DNS Proxy

You can also enable a DNS proxy. When enabled, the router then acts as a proxy
for all DNS requests and communicates with the ISP's DNS servers. When
disabled, all DHCP clients receive the DNS IP addresses of the ISP.
To configure the DNS proxy server for the Cisco RV180/RV180W:
Choose Networking > LAN (Local Network) > IPv4 LAN (Local Network).
In the DNS Proxy field, check to enable the Cisco RV180/RV180W to act as a
proxy for all DNS requests and communicate with the ISP's DNS servers.
Click Save.

Configuring Virtual LAN (VLAN) Membership

A VLAN is a group of endpoints in a network that are associated by function or
other shared characteristics. Unlike LANs, which are usually geographically based,
VLANs can group endpoints without regard to the physical location of the
equipment or users. You can create up to four new VLANS.
Enabling VLANs
Choose Networking > LAN (Local Network) > VLAN Membership.
Check the Enable box.
Click Save.
Under the Enable VLAN field, The VLAN Membership Table is shown. This shows
available VLANs, including the VLAN ID, description, ports, and whether inter-
VLAN routing is enabled or not for each configured VLAN.
Creating a VLAN
You can create up to four VLANs on the Cisco RV180/RV180W.
Choose Networking > LAN (Local Network) > VLAN Membership.
In the VLAN Membership Table, click Add Row.
