DI-724U User's Manual LAN Using the Configuration Menu Home > LAN LAN is short for Local Area Network.This is considered your internal network.These are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the DI-724U. These settings may be referred to as Private settings.You may change the LAN IP address if needed.The LAN IP address is private to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet. IP Address: The IP address of your router on the local area network. Your local area network settings are based on the address assigned here. For example, 192.168.0.1. Default Subnet Mask: The subnet mask of your router on the local area network. Local Domain Name: This entry is optional. Enter a domain name for the local network. The DHCP server will give this domain name to the computers on the LAN. So, for example, if you enter mynetwork.net here, and you have a PC with a name of chris, that PC will be known as chris.mynetwork.net. Note, however, if the router's WAN settings specify Dynamic IP Address, and the ISP's DHCP server assigns a domain name to the router, that domain name will override any name you enter here. DNS Relay: When DNS Relay is enabled, the router plays the role of a DNS server. DNS requests sent to the router are forwarded to the ISP's DNS server. You should disable DNS relay if you implement a LAN-side DNS server as a virtual server. D-Link Systems, Inc. 21

DI-724U User’s Manual
D-Link Systems, Inc.
Using the Configuration Menu
LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal network. These are
the IP settings of the LAN interface for the DI-724U. These settings may be referred to
as Private settings. You may change the LAN IP address if needed. The LAN IP address
is private to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet.
LAN
Home > LAN
IP Address:
The IP address of your router on the local area network. Your
local area network settings are based on the address assigned
here. For example, 192.168.0.1.
Default Subnet
Mask:
The subnet mask of your router on the local area network.
DNS Relay:
When DNS Relay is enabled, the router plays the role of a
DNS server. DNS requests sent to the router are forwarded
to the ISP’s DNS server. You should disable DNS relay if you
implement a LAN-side DNS server as a virtual server.
Local Domain
Name:
This entry is optional. Enter a domain name for the local network.
The DHCP server will give this domain name to the computers
on the LAN. So, for example, if you enter mynetwork.net here,
and you have a PC with a name of chris, that PC will be known as
chris.mynetwork.net. Note, however, if the router’s WAN settings
specify Dynamic IP Address, and the ISP’s DHCP server assigns
a domain name to the router, that domain name will override any
name you enter here.
