DNS (Domain Name Service) provides the translation of host names to IP addresses on
your network.

by the DHCP server. Click the View button to see the current settings.
Use the following DNS server address - enter the desired DNS server by specifying the
following:
Domain name - enter the domain(s) to search for the host name used by the AXIS 240Q.
Multiple domains can be separated by semicolons (;). The host name is always the first part
of a Fully Qualified Domain Name, e.g. myserver is the host name in the Fully Qualified
Domain Name myserver.mycompany.com where mycompany.com is the Domain name.
DNS servers - enter the IP addresses of the primary and secondary DNS servers.
NTP
Obtain NTP server address via DHCP - use a DHCP server to automatically find an NTP
server to synchronize clock of the AXIS 240Q with the other devices on the network
Use the following NTP server address - use the host name or IP address of a specific NTP
server for time synchronization.
Host Name Configuration
The AXIS 240Q can be accessed using a host name, instead of an IP address. The host
name is usually the same as the assigned DNS Name.

Link-Local Address
This is enabled by default and assigns the AXIS 240Q an additional IP address for use with
UPnP™. The AXIS 240Q can have both a Link-Local IP and a static/DHCP-supplied IP
address at the same time - these will not affect each other.
HTTP
The default HTTP port number (80) can be changed to any port within the range
1024-65535. This is useful for e.g. simple port mapping.
