PC Database
The PC Database is used whenever you need to select a PC (e.g. for the "DMZ" PC). It
eliminates the need to enter IP addresses. Also, you do not need to use fixed IP addresses on
your LAN.

An example PC Database screen is shown below.

•
PCs which are "DHCP Clients" are automatically added to the database, and updated as
required.
• By default, non-Server versions of Windows act as "DHCP Clients"; this setting is called
"Obtain an IP Address automatically".
• The Wireless Router uses the "Hardware Address" to identify each PC, not the name or IP
address. The "Hardware Address" can only change if you change the PC's network card or
adapter.
•
This system means you do NOT need to use Fixed (static) IP addresses on your LAN.
However, you can add PCs using Fixed (static) IP Addresses to the PC database if
required.
