DD-WRT Setup |
/get-started/advanced/windows-2016-dhcp/ |
Before you begin, you will need to choose two DNS servers. You can either pick from this list, or use these two:
- 198.251.90.143 (ModernTLD Anycast Server)
- 185.121.177.177 (Fusl's Anycast Server)
Note: This is not configuration on Windows clients locally, see the Windows guide if you wish to change DNS servers on your local PC.
- Open DHCP Manager, either on your Windows Server or through RSAT.
- In the sidebar, navigate to Your Server > IPv4 > Scope [Your Scope] > Scope Options
- If the option 006 DNS Servers exists to the right, double click it. Otherwise right click the space to the right and choose Configure Options…
- Under Available Options, check the box next to 006 DNS Servers if it isn’t checked already.
- In scope options, after selecting 006 DNS Servers, enter an IP address you just chose above into the IP address box, then click Add to add it to the list below.
- Repeat Step 6 until you’ve entered all the IP addresses you’ve chosen. Technically you only need one but we recommend 2 to 4 to ensure uptime and load balancing.
- Click OK and exit out of DHCP Manager.
That's all! You're now configured to access any ModernTLD or OpenNIC website!
