DNS
Domain Name System (DNS) servers map the user-friendly domain names that users type into their Web
browsers (e.g., "yahoo.com") to the equivalent numerical IP addresses that are used for Internet routing.
When a PC user types a domain name into a browser, the PC must first send a request to a DNS server to
obtain the equivalent IP address. The DNS server will attempt to look up the domain name in its own
database, and will communicate with higher-level DNS servers when the name cannot be found locally.
When the address is found, it is sent back to the requesting PC and is referenced in IP packets for the
remainder of the communication.
If Enable Automatic Assigned DNS checkbox is selected, this router will accept the first received DNS
assignment from one of the PPPoA, PPPoE or MER/DHCP enabled PVC(s) during the connection
establishment. If the checkbox is not selected, enter the primary and optional secondary DNS server
IP addresses. Click
to save it.
NOTE: If changing from unselected Automatic Assigned DNS to selected Automatic Assigned DNS,
You must reboot the router to get the automatic assigned DNS addresses
