Surely the router would be set to receive the DNS addresses from the
ISP. In which case shouldn't the Primary and Secondary DNS
addresses be filled in automatically.
And if the router, assuming NATing, is set to assign IP's via its own
DNS, then a Private, start and end address range would have to be
entered somewhere.
If this is done then any machine on the LAN should be automatically
assigned an IP from within that range.
