Note: Untagged networks with the interface tag '0' can see all other net-
works. Tagged networks, on the other hand, can only see networks with
the same interface tag.
Networks of the type 'DMZ' are visible to all other networks—irrespective
of the interface tag being used. Because the networks generally host web-
servers, for example, any limitation on accessibility would be senseless.

11.7Changes in other services
A change of network definition influences a number of internal services in the
BAT Router, such as the DHCP server, RIP, NetBIOS proxy, etc., because
these services have to behave differently at the various interfaces. For exam-
ple, the DHCP server has to be able to distribute addresses suitable for the
network, or the NetBOIS proxy is not to be active in the DMZ. For this reason
these services have to be configurated separately for each network.
11.7.1 DHCP server
The DHCP server in the BAT Router can assign the necessary address in-
formation such as IP addresses, netmask, gateway or name server to the cli-
ents in the network. The BAT Router can also operate as a DHCP relay agent
and as a DHCP relay server.
D As a DHCP relay agent the BAT Router forwards DHCP requests to an-
other DHCP server.
D As DHCP relay server the BAT Router processes DHCP requests for-
warded from DHCP relay agents.
