6.5 LAN Client List
This table allows you to assign IP addresses on the LAN to specific 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.

This field is not available when you set DHCP to Relay .
Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are passed to the
DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask.
If the fields are left as 0.0.0.0, the ZyXEL Device acts as a DNS proxy and
forwards the DHCP client’s DNS query to the real DNS server learned through
IPCP and relays the response back to the computer.
