Chapter 5 LAN Screens
The ZyXEL Device supports both IGMP version 1 (IGMP-v1) and IGMP version 2 (IGMP-
v2). At start up, the ZyXEL Device queries all directly connected networks to gather group
membership. After that, the ZyXEL Device periodically updates this information. IP
multicasting can be enabled/disabled on the ZyXEL Device LAN and/or WAN interfaces in
the web configurator (LAN; WAN). Select None to disable IP multicasting on these
interfaces.

5.6 WINS

WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) is a Windows implementation of NetBIOS Name
Server (NBNS) on Windows. It keeps track of NetBIOS computer names. It stores a mapping
table of your network's computer names and IP addresses. The table is dynamically updated
for IP addresses assigned by DHCP. This helps reduce broadcast traffic since computers can
query the server instead of broadcasting a request for a computer name's IP address. In this
way WINS is similar to DNS, although WINS does not use a hierarchy (unlike DNS). A
network can have more than one WINS server. Samba can also serve as a WINS server.

5.7 LAN

Click NETWORK > LAN to open the LAN screen. Use this screen to configure the ZyXEL
Device's IP address and other LAN TCP/IP settings as well as the built-in DHCP server
capability that assigns IP addresses and DNS servers to systems that support DHCP client
capability.
