→Configure a static IP
=== Configure a static IP ===
=== Configure a static IP ===
Initial loging in might be harder as you will need to find the IP of this new toy. you could refer to dhcp logs or arp from your SME. Then I strongly suggest you to get the MAC address of the interfaces and use the server-manager to set a static IP for this host. You will need a static IP latter to get this working. Also having an easy hostname to remember will help : pihole.mydomain.com

</syntaxhighlight>Folow the Installer, you will have a reminder about the static IP, if you have set the IP accordingly in SME Server with a hostname you can ignore the step of configuring it again in the installer, as dhcpd will always give the ip configured this way.

'''Select Custom for the Upstream DNS Provider'''. This is where we will '''use SME Server as upstream Server''' ! Why do we choose that ? see section below. USe SME Server Local interface IP (mostly something like 192.168.X.1)
