The FVX538 has a DHCP server and it works okay, but the addressing scheme is a random one. Uge! Is there any way to fix the IP addresses and still assign them from the FVX 538? Can the FVX 538 support dynamic DNS updating so I can name the darn addresses regardless of what they happen to be at the moment?
I'm trying to use the FVX 538 in a different sort of way. I DON'T want to access the Internet through it and I don't want to be able to. I DO want to access the systems on it's private LAN and systems in private LANs connected via tunnel. I am also trying to connect the FVX538's LAN to another LAN. I think I plugged into the wrong port choosing one of the LAN ports instead of the DMZ port, but maybe I didn't. It seems that the DMZ is only intended for hosts which possibly serve the Internet that cannot go through NAT. A downside of the DMZ on the FVX 538 is that networking between LAN and DMZ is blocked. How does dynamic dns work? Does the DHCP server send a MAC/IP address pair? This is the information I need to assign the same name to the same computer regardless of the IP assignment if I write a program to generate the zone files. Can the FVX 538 support assigning static routes to other private networks via one of the statically configured hosts on the LAN segment? I've tried google, but my situation doesn't seem to be covered. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
