Services

Within the service settings you configure the DHCP service, DNS forwarding and other related parameters.

DHCP Service

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communication protocol in network technology. It enables the assignment of the network configuration to clients by a server. In this way, devices in the network can be assigned IP addresses dynamically. You can reach this service under Services > DHCP Service.

DNS Relay

When DNS relay is enabled (by default, if DHCP is set up), the IP address of the router is assigned to the DHCP clients as the DNS server. All DNS requests to the router are forwarded to your ISP’s DNS servers. If DNS Relay is disabled, the Router assigns the ISP’s DNS servers to the DHCP clients. You can access these settings via Services > DNS Relay.

With the Add button up to 20 DNS pairs can be created.

DDNS (Dynamic DNS)

DDNS or dynamic DNS is used if the WAN connection does not have a fixed public IP address, but services are still to be accessed externally. Since the IP address of the provider can change again and again with a normal WAN connection, a secure setup, e.g. of a VPN tunnel, is not possible. Therefore one uses providers of dynamic DNS servers, which make sure that your WAN connection always gets the IP address. You can reach the configuration via Network > DDNS.

No-IP is used here as an example for the setup. For this, you need a No-IP account, which you have to create yourself. There are various providers here, some of which are free of charge, but some of which are subject to a charge. The assignment of the Dynamic DNS can be assigned to the WAN as well as to the dialup connection.
