Network Setting

Router Settings

The IP address of your router on the local area network.

Your local area network settings are based on the

address assigned here. For example, 192.168.0.1.

The subnet mask of your router on the local area

network.

This entry is optional. Enter a domain name for the

local network. The DHCP server will give this domain

name to the computers on the LAN. So, for example,

if you enter mynetwork.net here, and you have a PC

with a name of chris, that PC will be known as chris.

mynetwork.net. Note, however, if the router’s WAN

settings specify Dynamic IP Address, and the ISP’s

DHCP server assigns a domain name to the router,

that domain name will override any name you enter

here.

When DNS Relay is enabled, the router plays the role

of a DNS server. DNS requests sent to the router are

forwarded to the ISP’s DNS server. This provides

a constant DNS address that LAN computers can

use, even when the router obtains a different DNS

server address from the ISP upon re-establishing

the WAN connection. You should disable DNS relay

if you implement a LAN-side DNS server as a virtual

server.
