DNS
Your Ser vice Provider may maintain a Domain Name ser ver. If you have the information for
the DNS ser vers, enter it on the DNS page. If your Gateway is configured to use DHCP to
obtain its WAN IP address, the DNS information is automatically obtained from that same
DHCP Ser ver.

DHCP Server
Your Gateway can provide network configuration information to computers on your LAN,
using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
If you already have a DHCP ser ver on your LAN, you should turn this ser vice off.
If you want the Gateway to provide this ser vice, click the
Server Mode
pull-down menu,
then configure the range of IP addresses that you would like the Gateway to hand out to
your computers.
You can also specify the length of time the computers can use the configuration informa-
tion; DHCP calls this period the lease time.
