DNS
C
lick this link to display the Dynamic Name System (DNS) page.
This page allows you to:
•
View and/or supply the SpeedTouch™ DNS domain name and to enable/disable
the SpeedTouch™ DNS server:
Note: The use of DNS subdomains is supported, e.g. dsl.office.lan.
•
View the current SpeedTouch™ DNS server hostname leases:
Via this table you can also add static DNS hostname entries.
This may be useful for devices which do not support DNS, e.g. a printer. By adding
a name for your network printer, identified by its IP address, you will be able to
contact this printer by name rather than by IP address.
Note: Do not forget to save your changes to persistent memory by clicking
DHCP
C
lick this link to display the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) page.
This page allows you to:
•
Enable/disable the SpeedTouch™ (Auto)DHCP server:
The SpeedTouch™ features a DHCP server which allows the PCs/computers on
your local network to automatically obtain an IP address (select
DHCP server
). If
no DHCP is used on your local network, the SpeedTouch™ DHCP server can be
disabled (select
No DHCP
). The SpeedTouch™ can also search your local
network for another DHCP server (select
AutoDHCP
). If so, it slips into DHCP
client mode, if not the SpeedTouch™ becomes DHCP server. Click

your selection.
