CFW-2182 – User Guide
UG01233 v1.2 August 13, 2020 © Casa Systems 2020
With DNS masquerading ON, the DHCP server embedded in the CFW-2182 antenna hands out its own IP
address (e.g. 192.168.0.1) as the DNS server address to LAN clients. The downstream clients then send DNS
requests to the CFW-2182 antenna which proxies them to the upstream DNS servers.
You may also override the DNS Masquerading option by specifying custom DNS Server IP addresses in the
DHCP Server configuration mentioned in the next section of this guide. In this case the DHCP server assigns
downstream devices the manually configured addresses and the DNS Masquerading option is ignored.
The DNS masquerading toggle key is OFF by default.
