5.8 DNS Configuration
The DNS Configuration page allows you to set the configuration of the DNS proxy.
For the DHCP requests from local PCs, the DHCP server will set the LAN port IP as the
default DNS server. Thus, all DNS query messages will come into LAN port first. The
DNS proxy on the Router records the available DNS servers and forwards DNS query
messages to one of DNS servers.
DNS Proxy Enable/Disable: When the DNS Proxy is Disabled, the LAN port does not
process the DNS query message. For the DHCP requests from local PCs, the DHCP
server will set the user-configured DNS server as the DNS server. Then all DNS query
messages will be directly sent to the DNS servers. DNS Proxy is enabled by default.
Auto Discovered: When enabled (default), the DNS proxy will store the DNS server IP
addresses obtained from DHCP client or PPP into the table. All DNS query messages will
be sent to the dynamically obtained DNS server. Select this option when the DNS Server
address is unknown but provided (automatically) by the ISP.
