DHCP Settings
DNS Servers
Each ISP may provide a set of DNS servers for DNS lookups. This
setting specifies the DNS (Domain Name System) Servers to be used
when a DNS lookup is routed through this connection.
Selecting
Obtain DNS server address automatically
results in the
DNS Servers assigned by the WAN DHCP Server to be used for
outbound DNS lookups over the connection. (The DNS Servers are
obtained along with the WAN IP address assigned from the DHCP
server.)
When
Use the following DNS server address(es)
is selected, you
can put custom DNS server addresses for this WAN connection into the
DNS server 1
and
DNS server 2
fields.
Hostname
If your service provider's DHCP server requires you to supply a
"hostname" value upon acquiring an IP address, you can enter the
value here. If your service provider does not provide you the value,
you can safely bypass this option.
Please refer to chapter 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 for details about SMTP Forwarding, Dynamic
DNS Settings and WAN Health Check.
