IP DNS Proxy Configuration
◆ DNS Proxy – If enabled, the switch maintains a local database based on previous
responses to DNS queries forwarded on behalf of attached clients. If the required
information is not in the local database, the switch forwards the DNS query to a DNS
server, stores the response in its local cache for future reference, and passes the
response back to the client.
WEB INTERFACE

IPV6 Configuration
Use the IPv6 Configuration page to configure an IPv6 address for management access to
the switch.
IPv6 includes two distinct address types - link-local unicast and global unicast. A link-local
address makes the switch accessible over IPv6 for all devices attached to the same local
subnet. Management traffic using this kind of address cannot be passed by any router
outside of the subnet. A link-local address is easy to set up, and may be useful for simple
networks or basic troubleshooting tasks. However, to connect to a larger network with
multiple segments, the switch must be configured with a global unicast address. A link-local
address must be manually configured, but a global unicast address can be either manually
configured or dynamically assigned.
