DMZ IP Address
If you enable DMZ in the parameter above, set the last byte of the DMZ host
IP address to use for this SM when DMZ is enabled. Only one such address is
allowed. The first three bytes are identical to those of the NAT private IP
address. Ensure that the device that receives network traffic behind this SM
is assigned this address. The system provides a warning if you enter an
address within the range that DHCP can assign.
DHCP Server
This is the server (in the SM) that provides an IP address to the device
connected to the Ethernet port of the SM.
DHCP Server
Enable/Disable
Select either Enabled or Disabled.
Enable to:
•
Allow this SM to assign IP addresses, subnet masks, and gateway IP
addresses to attached devices.
•
Assign a start address for DHCP.
•
Designate how many IP addresses may be temporarily used (leased).
Disable to:
•
Restrict SM/BHS from assigning addresses to attached devices.
DHCP Server Lease
Timeout
Based on network performance, enter the number of days between when
the DHCP server assigns an IP address and when that address expires. The
range of values for this parameter is 1 to 30 days. The default value is 30
days.
DHCP Start IP
If you enable DHCP Server below, set the last byte of the starting IP address
that the DHCP server assigns. The first three bytes are identical to those of
the NAT private IP address.
Number of IPs to
Lease
Enter how many IP addresses the DHCP server is allowed to assign. The
default value is 50 addresses.
DNS Server Proxy
This parameter enables or disables advertisement of the SM/BHS 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.
