10.3 Static DHCP
When any of the LAN clients in your network want an assigned fixed IP address, add a static lease for
each LAN client. Knowing the LAN client’s MAC addresses is necessary. This table allows you to assign IP
addresses on the LAN to individual computers based on their MAC addresses.
Every Ethernet device has a unique MAC (Media Access Control) address. The MAC address is assigned
at the factory and consists of six pairs of hexadecimal characters, for example, 00:A0:C5:00:00:02.
10.3.1 Before You Begin
Find out the MAC addresses of your network devices if you intend to add them to the
Static DHCP
screen.
Use this screen to change your Zyxel Device’s static DHCP settings. Click

to open the following screen.
IPv6 DNS Values
IPv6 DNS Server
1 – 3
Specify the IP addresses up to three DNS servers for the DHCP clients to use. Use one of the
following ways to specify these IP addresses.
User Defined
– Select this if you have the IPv6 address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server
IPv6 addresses the Zyxel Device passes to the DHCP clients.
From ISP
– Select this if your ISP dynamically assigns IPv6 DNS server information.
Proxy
– Select this if the DHCP clients use the IP address of this interface and the Zyxel Device
works as a DNS relay.
Otherwise, select
None
if you do not want to configure IPv6 DNS servers.
DNS Query Scenario Select how the Zyxel Device handles clients’ DNS information requests.
IPv4/IPv6 DNS Server
: The Zyxel Device forwards the requests to both the IPv4 and IPv6 DNS
servers and sends clients the first DNS information it receives.
IPv6 DNS Server Only
: The Zyxel Device forwards the requests to the IPv6 DNS server and
sends clients the DNS information it receives.
IPv4 DNS Server Only
: The Zyxel Device forwards the requests to the IPv4 DNS server and
sends clients the DNS information it receives.
IPv6 DNS Server First
: The Zyxel Device forwards the requests to the IPv6 DNS server first and
then the IPv4 DNS server. Then it sends clients the first DNS information it receives.
IPv4 DNS Server First
: The Zyxel Device forwards the requests to the IPv4 DNS server first and
then the IPv6 DNS server. Then it sends clients the first DNS information it receives.
