FIELD DESCRIPTION
System Name Choose a descriptive name for identification purposes. It is recommended you
enter your computer’s “Computer name” in this field. This name can be up to 30
alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-” and
underscores "_" are accepted.
Domain Name Enter the domain name (if you know it) here. If you leave this field blank, the ISP
may assign a domain name via DHCP. You can go to menu 24.8 and type "sys
domain name" to see the current domain name used by your router.
The domain name entered by you is given priority over the ISP assigned domain
name. If you want to clear this field just press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER].

DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding
IP address and vice versa. The DNS server is extremely important because
without it, you must know the IP address of a machine before you can access it.
The Prestige uses a system DNS server (in the order you specify here) to resolve
domain names for VPN, DDNS and the time server.
Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select an option. Select From ISP if
your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the Prestige's WAN IP
address). The IP Address field below displays the (read-only) DNS server IP
address that the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS
server's IP address in the IP Address field. If you select User-Defined, but leave
the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you save your
changes. If you set a second choice to User-Defined, and enter the same IP
address, the second User-Defined changes to None after you save your
changes.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure
a system DNS server, you must use IP addresses when configuring VPN, DDNS
and the time server.
Edit Dynamic DNS Press [SPACE BAR] and then [ENTER] to select Yes or No (default). Select Yes
to configure Menu 1.1: Configure Dynamic DNS discussed next.
When you have completed this menu, press [ENTER] at the prompt “Press ENTER to Confirm…” to
save your configuration, or press [ESC] at any time to cancel.
