the DHCP server to start with when issuing IP addresses. If

the 1st IP address of your router is 192.168.1.1, the starting

IP address must be 192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than

192.168.1.254.

IP Pool Counts - Enter the maximum number of PCs that

you want the DHCP server to assign IP addresses to. The

default is 50 and the maximum is 253.

Gateway IP Address - Enter a value of the gateway IP

address for the DHCP server. The value is usually as same

as the 1st IP address of the router, which means the router is

the default gateway.

DHCP Server IP Address for Relay Agent - Set the IP

address of the DHCP server you are going to use so the

Relay Agent can help to forward the DHCP request to the

DHCP server.

DNS Server

Configuration

DNS stands for Domain Name System. Every Internet host

must have a unique IP address, also they may have a

human-friendly, easy to remember name such as

www.yahoo.com. The DNS server converts the

user-friendly name into its equivalent IP address.

Primary IP Address -You must specify a DNS server IP

address here because your ISP should provide you with

usually more than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not

provide it, the router will automatically apply default DNS

Server IP address: 194.109.6.66 to this field.

Secondary IP Address - You can specify secondary DNS

server IP address here because your ISP often provides you

more than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it,

the router will automatically apply default secondary DNS

Server IP address: 194.98.0.1 to this field.

The default DNS Server IP address can be found via Online

Status:

If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are

left empty, the router will assign its own IP address to local

users as a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache.

If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS

cache, the router will resolve the domain name immediately.

Otherwise, the router forwards the DNS query packet to the

external DNS server by establishing a WAN (e.g.

DSL/Cable) connection.

Force router to use address for DNS-

Force Vigor router

to use DNS servers in this page instead of DNS servers

given by the Internet Access server (PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP or

DHCP server).
