Primary DNS server: The IP address of the primary DNS server automatically
assigned by the DHCP server to the network computers.
Secondary DNS server: The IP address of the secondary DNS server assigned by
the DHCP server to the network computers automatically.
Enable DNS proxy: Selecting it means enabled. The DNS proxy function of the device
will not take effect unless enabled. After enabling this function, the gateway address
is assigned to a client as primary, secondary DNS servers.
Operator DNS servers 1, 2: The IP address of operator DNS server.
Tip:
1.
If the device's DHCP server function is to be used, network computer's TCP/IP
protocol can be set to "obtain an IP address automatically".
2.
If what's originally used by the user is a proxy server software (such as Wingate), and
the PC's DNS server is set as the IP address of the proxy server, then the LAN IP
address of the device only needs to be set to the same IP address, so that the user
can switch to using the device's DNS proxy function without having to change the PC
setting after the device enables the DNS proxy function.
6.4.2 Static DHCP
This section describes the static DHCP list and the way to configure a static DHCP.
Using the DHCP service to automatically configure TCP/IP properties for the network
computers is very convenient, but it can cause a computer to be assigned with different IP
address at different times. And some Intranet computers may need a fixed IP address, in
this case, the static DHCP function is required, to bind the computer's MAC address with
an IP address, as shown in Figure 6-15. When a computer having this MAC address
requests the address from the DHCP server (device) , the device will find a corresponding
fixed IP address based on its MAC address and assign it to the computer.
