**Nameserver**
Name Server refers to the server component of the Domain Name System (DNS), one of the two principal namespaces of the Internet. The most important function of DNS servers is the translation (resolution) of human-memorable domain names (example.com) and hostnames into the corresponding numeric Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (93.184.216.34), the second principal namespace of the Internet, which is used to identify and locate computer systems and resources on the Internet.
Accepted values: Integer
Default: Blank
**Network Mask**
This option allows users to set the network mask which will be assigned to devices on the network.
Accepted values: Integer
Default: Blank
**Default Gateway**
This option allows users to set the default gateway IP as it will be assigned to devices in the network.
Accepted values: IP
Default: Blank
**Enable IP Lease**
A DHCP lease is a temporary assignment of an IP address to a device on the network. When using DHCP to manage a pool of IP addresses, each client served on the network is only “renting” its IP address. Thus, IP addresses managed by a DHCP server are only assigned for a limited period of time. Users are allowed to set the DHCP IP lease which will be assigned to the PC.
Accepted values: Enable / Disable
Default: Disable
**Mac IP Binding**
Mac-binding essentially means binding together the MAC and IP addresses, so that all requests from that IP address are served only by the computer having that particular MAC address. In effect, it means that if the IP address or the MAC address changes, the device can no longer access the Internet.
Accepted values: String
Default: Blank
### Description
**MAC Address**
