First DNS Server
Second DNS
Server
Third DNS Server
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server
information (and the NVG2053's WAN IP address).
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server.
Enter the DNS server's IP address in the field to the right.
Select DNS Relay to have the NVG2053 act as a DNS proxy. The
NVG2053's LAN IP address displays in the field to the right (read-
only). The NVG2053 tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the
NVG2053 itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends
a DNS query to the NVG2053, the NVG2053 forwards the query to the
NVG2053's system DNS server (configured in the Network >
Broadband screen) and relays the response back to the computer.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do
not configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a
computer in order to access it.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the NVG2053.
Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
