Configuring LAN-DNS
Hello all,
Sorry, but I don't understand how to configure LAN-DNS by using ER81411 und OC300:
What I want is...
I have a local domain. For example it is "example.local"
And I have some clients, for example called
"Cam1" (IP: 192.168.0.100),
"Cam2" (IP: 192.168.0.101),
"phone" (IP: 192.168.0.102),
"pvr" (IP: 192.168.0.103),
...
"mail" (IP: 192.168.0.20)
"drive" (IP: 192.168.0.20)
"www" (IP: 192.168.0.20) - same IP-Address
I have access to all of these clients by IP-Address.
Now I want to have access to them by name.
For example: Cam1.example.local
If I understand correct, I have to do this manually by entering all the names in "network->LAN->LAN-DNS->new-> type IP"???
If so, what exactly do I have to enter in the fields?
But can't I use "Client-Name" (entered in client-configuaration) and a global "example.local"? In the way, that the gateway first looks if Client-Name.example.local is existing, and if not, then forwarding the address. If this is possible, how does this work, and what do I have to enter where?
Regard,
GuWen
Here is an example:
In the Apply to LAN field, select the VLANs that will use the LAN DNS entry. The first time you access the entry with your browser, you might have to use "http://cam1.local". The next time you can just enter "cam1.local".
OK. Thanks, jra11500, for your fast answer.
That means it is necessary to do an separate entry for all devices and I can't use the "client-name" from device-configuration. That's quite complicate.
And it is possible to have a link between client-name and LAN-DNS name, just like "Camera No 1 <--> Cam1"?
If I see correct I can't ad a column in the device list for example.

I believe you will have to manually enter each entry as there is no way to import. The LAN DNS links that you mention are not possible (for now) and I would suggest you submit a feature request for these features if you feel that they are important.
