built-in DNS server address (i.e., LAN IP address) will be offered.
WINS Servers
This option allows you to optionally specify a Windows Internet Name Service
(WINS) server. You may choose to use the built-in WINS server or external WINS
servers.
When this unit is connected using SpeedFusion
TM
, other VPN peers can share this
unit's built-in WINS server by entering this unit's LAN IP address in their DHCP
WINS Server setting. Afterward, all PC clients in the VPN can resolve the NetBIOS
names of other clients in remote peers. If you have enabled this option, a list of
WINS clients will be displayed at Status>WINS Clients.
BOOTP Check this box to enable BOOTP on older networks that still require it.
Extended DHCP
Option
In addition to standard DHCP options (e.g., DNS server address, gateway address,
subnet mask), you can specify the value of additional extended DHCP options, as
defined in RFC 2
132. With these extended options enabled, you can pass
additional configuration information to LAN hosts.
To define an extended DHCP option, click the Add button, choose the option to
define and enter its value. For values that are in IP address list format, you can
enter one IP address per line in the provided text area input control. Each option
can be defined once only.
DHCP
Reservation
This setting reserves the assignment of fixed IP addresses for a list of computers
on the LAN. The computers to be assigned fixed IP addresses on the LAN are
identified by their MAC addresses. The fixed IP address assignment is displayed
as a cross-reference list between the computers’ names, MAC addresses, and
fixed IP addresses.
Name (an optional field) allows you to specify a name to represent the device. MAC
addresses should be in the format of 00:AA:BB:CC:DD:EE. Press to create
a new record. Press to remove a record. Reserved client information can be
imported from the Client List, located at Status>Client List. For more details,
please refer to Section 22.3.
