PC Database
The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC). It eliminates the need to
enter IP addresses. Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on your LAN.

•
PCs which are "DHCP Clients" are automatically added to the database, and updated as required.
•
By default, non-Server versions of Windows act as "DHCP Clients"; this setting is called "Obtain an IP
Address automatically".
•
The WRT-413 uses the "Hardware Address" to identify each PC, not the name or IP address. The "Hardware
Address" can only change if you change the PC's network card or adapter.
•
This system means you do NOT need to use Fixed (static) IP addresses on your LAN. However, you can add
PCs using Fixed (static) IP Addresses to the PC database if required.
