How often does it send the hostname query?A: DFL-M510 utilizes the WINS service to make queries for host names.

If these threequeries all fail, the name learning process is closed for this host.Q: What LOG information is included in the DFL-M510?A: The DFL-M510 does not contain a disk to store large bulks of data for log and report,so therefore only the necessary information for network users is saved.
