Configuring DNS

Domain Name System (DNS) is a system that maps host names to IP addresses.

Under Network, next to a connection type, click Edit.

Note:

The printer uses separate IPv4, IPv6, and DNS settings for wired and wireless network

connections. Before configuring wireless IP settings, install the Xerox

®

Wireless Network Interface

and connect to a wireless network. For details, see

Connecting to a Wireless Network

on page 32.

Under Configuration Settings, next to IP, click Edit.

To configure DNS, click DNS.

5.

Under Requested Host Name, type a unique name for your printer. If the host name successfully

registers to the DNS server, the host name appears under Verified Host Name. The default host

name is XRXxxx, where xxx is the MAC address of the printer.

Note:

If no host name or a different host name appears, the host name did not successfully register

to the DNS server. Configure your DHCP server to perform updates on behalf of the DHCP clients.

Under Requested Domain Name, type the name of the domain to which the printer is connected. If

the domain name successfully registers to the DNS server, the domain name appears under Verified

Domain Name.

Note:

If no domain name, or a different domain name appears, the domain name did not

successfully register to the DNS server. Configure your DHCP server to perform updates on behalf of

the DHCP clients.
