MoRoS Modem/ISDN Functions
June 06 19
It is mandatory to enter an IP address and a network mask. The IP address is the address
of the MoRoS in the Local Area Network.
After sending the changes to the MoRoS by clicking “OK”, the new addresses
will be valid immediately. This will immediately terminate the connection to
the MoRoS. To be able to continue the configuration, the new IP address
must be entered in the browser window.
The MAC address is unambiguous for each MoRoS. It may not be modified and is unique.
It is merely shown for informational purposes.
The specification of the two IP addresses for a DNS server (Domain Name Service) is
optional.
By default, for one of the two DNS servers, the IP address 127.0.0.1 is entered. MoRoS
itself is no DNS server, but it can forward DNS queries from the connected network to an
external DNS server. To activate forwarding, the IP address 127.0.0.1 must be entered in
at least one of the input fields. For the machines and computers which are connected to
the local network and want to use DNS forwarding by MoRoS, the IP address of the
MoRoS must be entered as DNS server address. By default, this is the IP address
192.168.1.1.
If the MoRoS has “Dial-Out” activated, it will establish a connection to this destination, if
required. After the connection has been established, the MoRoS will often receive one or
two IP addresses for the DNS server. If the target computer specifies DNS servers, the
MoRoS will save those addresses and in the future forward DNS queries to those servers.
If the MoRoS operates as a DHCP server, all DHCP clients will automatically receive the
information about the IP addresses of the set DNS servers during login. If no DNS server
is set, the IP address of an available DNS server must be set for each client.
