DNS Server Settings
The Router can be configured to relay DNS settings from your ISP or another available service to workstations on your
LAN. When using DNS relay, the Router will accept DNS requests from hosts on the LAN and forward them to the
ISP's, or alternative DNS servers. DNS relay can use auto discovery or the DNS IP address can be manually entered by
the user. Alternatively, you may also disable the DNS relay and configure hosts on your LAN to use DNS servers
directly. Most users who are using the Router for DHCP service on the LAN and are using DNS servers on the ISP's
network, will leave DNS relay enabled (either auto discovery or user configured).
If you have not been given specific DNS server IP addresses or if the Router is not pre-configured with DNS server
information, select the Disabled option for DNS Status. This instructs the Router to automatically obtain the DNS IP
address from the ISP through DHCP. If your WAN connection uses a Static IP address, auto discovery for DNS cannot
be used.
When you have configured the DNS settings as desired, click the Apply button.
To use DNS Relay for computers on your local network, DNS Service Filtering must be
disabled. See the Firewall section in the next chapter.
