Prestige 324 User's Guide Table 17-1 Menu 3.2: DHCP Ethernet Setup Fields FIELD DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE Client IP Pool: Starting Address This field specifies the first of the contiguous addresses in the IP address 192.168.1.33 pool. Size of Client IP This field specifies the size, or count of the IP address pool. 128 Pool First DNS Server The Prestige passes a DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address Second DNS (in the order you specify here) to the DHCP clients. Server Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information Third DNS Server (and the Prestige's WAN IP address). The IP Address field below displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns. From ISP Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS server's IP address in the IP Address field below. If you chose User-Defined, but leave the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you save your changes. If you set a second choice to User-Defined, and enter the same IP address, the second User-Defined changes to None after you save your changes. Select DNS Relay to have the Prestige act as a DNS proxy. The Prestige's LAN IP address displays in the IP Address field below (readonly). The Prestige tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the Prestige itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a DNS query to the Prestige, the Prestige forwards the query to the Prestige's system DNS server (configured in menu 1) and relays the response back to the computer. You can only select DNS Relay for one of the three servers; if you select DNS Relay for a second or third DNS server, that choice changes to None after you save your changes. 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 machine in order to access it. DHCP Server Address If Relay is selected in the DHCP field above, then type the IP address of the actual, remote DHCP server here. Use the instructions in the following table to configure TCP/IP parameters for the LAN port. Menu 3 LAN Setup 17-3

First DNS Server
Second DNS
Server
Third DNS Server
The Prestige passes a DNS (Domain Name System) server IP address
(in the order you specify here) to the DHCP clients.
Select
From ISP
if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information
(and the Prestige's WAN IP address). The
IP Address
field below
displays the (read-only) DNS server IP address that the ISP assigns.
Select
User-Defined
if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter
the DNS server's IP address in the
IP Address
field below. If you chose
User-Defined
, but leave the IP address set to 0.0.0.0,
User-Defined
changes to
None
after you save your changes. If you set a second
choice to
User-Defined
, and enter the same IP address, the second
User-Defined
changes to
None
after you save your changes.
Select
DNS Relay
to have the Prestige act as a DNS proxy. The
Prestige's LAN IP address displays in the
IP Address
field below (read-
only). The Prestige tells the DHCP clients on the LAN that the Prestige
itself is the DNS server. When a computer on the LAN sends a DNS
query to the Prestige, the Prestige forwards the query to the Prestige's
system DNS server (configured in menu 1) and relays the response back
to the computer. You can only select
DNS Relay
for one of the three
servers; if you select DNS Relay for a second or third DNS server, that
choice changes to
None
after you save your changes.
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 machine in
order to access it.
From ISP
