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.

Static DHCP
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.
Use this screen to change your VMG’s static DHCP settings. Click
Network Setting > Home Networking
>

to open the following screen.

The following table describes the labels in this screen.
DNS Query
Scenario
Select how the VMG handles clients’ DNS information requests.
IPv4/IPv6 DNS Server
: The VMG 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 VMG forwards the requests to the IPv6 DNS server and sends clients
the DNS information it receives.
IPv4 DNS Server Only
: The VMG forwards the requests to the IPv4 DNS server and sends clients
the DNS information it receives.
IPv6 DNS Server First
: The VMG 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 VMG 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.

MAC Address
The MAC (Media Access Control) or Ethernet address on a LAN (Local Area Network) is
unique to your computer (six pairs of hexadecimal notation).
A network interface card such as an Ethernet adapter has a hardwired address that is
assigned at the factory. This address follows an industry standard that ensures no other
adapter has a similar address.
