DNS Servers

This option allows you to input the DNS server addresses to be offered to DHCP

clients. If Assign DNS server automatically is selected, the Pepwave router’s

built-in DNS server address (i.e., LAN IP address) will be offered.

WINS Servers

This option allows you to specify the 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

, other VPN peers can share this

unit's built-in WINS server by entering this unit's LAN IP address in their DHCP

WINS Servers setting. Therefore, 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 2132. 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 then 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 clients

information can be imported from the Client List, located at Status>Client List.

For more details, please refer to Section 22.3.
