• Use DNS Proxy—Check this box to enable DNS proxy on this LAN, or
uncheck this box to disable this proxy. When this feature is enabled, the
firewall acts as a proxy for all DNS requests and communicate with the ISP’s
DNS servers (as configured in the WAN settings page).
• Use DNS from ISP—This option allows the ISP to define the DNS servers
(primary/secondary) for the LAN DHCP client.
• Use below—If selected, the primary/secondary DNS servers configured are
used. If you chose this option, enter the IP address of the primary and
secondary DNS servers.
STEP 9 Enter the lease/rebind time. Enter the duration (in seconds) for which IP addresses
will be leased to endpoints on the LAN.
STEP 10 Click Save.
Configuring IPv6 Address Pools
This feature allows you to define the IPv6 delegation prefix for a range of IP
addresses to be served by the Cisco RV180/RV180W’s DHCPv6 server. Using a
delegation prefix, you can automate the process of informing other networking
equipment on the LAN of DHCP information specific for the assigned prefix.
STEP 1 Choose Networking > IPv6 > IPv6 LAN (Local Area Network).
STEP 2 In the IPv6 Address Pool Table, click Add.
STEP 3 Enter the starting IP address and ending IP address of the pool.
STEP 4 Enter the prefix length. The number of common initial bits in the network’s
addresses is set by the prefix length field.
STEP 5 Click Save.
Configuring IPv6 Routing
Configuring Static Routing
You can configure static routes to direct packets to the destination network. A
static route is a pre-determined pathway that a packet must travel to reach a
specific host or network. Some ISPs require static routes to build your routing
table instead of using dynamic routing protocols. Static routes do not require CPU
