Address
The address of the default gateway for computers

address.

IP Address
The IP address of the Domain Name System server
to be used by computers that receive IP addresses
from this pool. The DNS server translates common
Internet names that you type into your web browser
into their equivalent numeric IP addresses. Typically,
the server(s) are located with your ISP. However,
you may enter LAN IP address of the RX3042H as
it will serve as DNS proxy for the LAN computers
and forward the DNS request from the LAN to
DNS servers and relay the results back to the
LAN computers. Note that both the primary and
secondary DNS servers are optional.
Primary/
Secondary
WINS Server
IP Address
(optional)
The IP address of the WINS servers to be used
by computers that receive IP addresses from the
DHCP IP address pool. You donʼt need to enter
this information unless your network has WINS
servers.
