Attribute Meaning
DNS Server Proxy This parameter enables or disables advertisement of the SM
as the DNS server. On initial boot up of a SM with the NAT
WAN interface configured as DHCP or PPPoE, the SM
module will not have DNS information immediately. With
DNS Server Proxy disabled, the clients will renew their
lease about every minute until the SM has the DNS
information to give out. At this point the SM will go to the
full configured lease time period which is 30 days by default.
With DNS Server Proxy enabled, the SM will give out full
term leases with its NAT LAN IP as the DNS server.
DNS IP Address
Select either:
Obtain Automatically to allow the system to set the IP
address of the DNS server
or
Set Manually to enable yourself to set both a preferred and
an alternate DNS IP address.
Preferred DNS IP
Address
Enter the preferred DNS IP address to use when the DNS IP
Address parameter is set to Set Manually.
Alternate DNS IP
Address
Enter the DNS IP address to use when the DNS IP Address
parameter is set to Set Manually and no response is
received from the preferred DNS IP address.
