This section is only relevant if you are using the access point’s DHCP server, want to configure DNS related
settings and setup TFTP.

General Settings / Resolv and Hosts Files
All of these options are for advanced users with good knowledge about the inner workings of TCP/IP in
general, and DNS in particular. Most users are well advised to give this entire section a wide berth.
3.5.3.2
TFTP Settings
OpenWRT uses Dnsmasq as its default DNS forwarder and DHCP server. It is also has a built‐in TFTP server.
Dnsmasq allows you to host the TFTP files on your router. In order to do that, you need to specify the
TFTP root folder, and the name of the network boot image.
