OfficeConnect VPN Firewall User’s Manual Chapter 5. Configuring LAN Settings
31
When performing DNS relay, the OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall must
maintain the IP addresses of the DNS servers it contacts. It can learn these
addresses in either or both of the following ways:
Learned through PPPoE or Dynamic IP Connection: If the
OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall uses a PPPoE (see section 8.2.2
Configuring PPPoE for WAN) or Dynamic IP (see section 8.4.2 Configuring
Dynamic IP for WAN) connection to the ISP, the primary and secondary
DNS addresses can be learned via the PPPoE protocol. Using this option
provides the advantage that you will not need to reconfigure the PCs or the
OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall if the ISP changes their DNS
addresses.
Configured on the OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall: You can also
specify the ISP's DNS addresses in the WAN Configuration page as
shown in
Follow these steps to configure DNS relay:
1. Enter LAN IP in the DNS Server IP Address field in DHCP
configuration page as shown in Figure 5.3.
2. Configure the LAN PCs to use the IP addresses assigned by the
DHCP server on the OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall, or enter
the OfficeConnect Gigabit VPN Firewall's LAN IP address as their
DNS server address manually for each PC on your LAN.
DNS addresses that are assigned to LAN PCs prior to enabling
DNS relay will remain in effect until the PC is rebooted. DNS relay
will only take effect when a PC's DNS address is the LAN IP
address.
Similarly, if after enabling DNS relay, you specify a DNS address
(other than the LAN IP address) in a DHCP pool or statically on a
PC, then that address will be used instead of the DNS relay
5.5 Configuring the Port Settings
This page allows you to enable/disable a specific port, change the port speed or
enable/disable DMZ ports. Follow these steps to configure the port settings:

To configure the port settings, click ―Network‖ in the main menu and then click
―Port Setup‖ sub-menu. See Figure 5.5 Port Setup Configuration Page.
1. Move the mouse cursor to the desired port icon and then click on the
