DNS server

DNS is a decentralised service which assigns PC names or Internet addresses (

Domain

names

) and IP addresses to one another. A DNS server has to administer this information

for each server or each LAN with an Internet connection.
Normally your Internet provider provides you with a

DNS server

which makes this

assignment when connection is made to the Internet. If necessary you can define the
DNS server to be used for the Internet connections manually.

ì

In the Advanced Settings Internet menu, select DNS Servers.

ì

Activate the Use custom DNS servers function via the option On.

ì

Enter the IP addresses for your preferred DNS servers (Preferred DNS server and
Alternate DNS server).

ì

Click OK to apply the settings.
