The DNS Tab
This configuration form is used to enter the DNS and WINS information that will
be given to each host on LAN1 and LAN2 when the main unit is acting as the
DHCP server on either or both LANs.
DNS Server IP Address: This is the IP address of the Domain Name Server
(DNS) of the Internet Service Provider (ISP) for the system. The field is populated
from the value found on IP Configuration form of the Administration PC. If this is
subsequently changed, the Ethernet Adapter in the PC’s IP configuration must be
“renewed”. See Static IP Addressing on page 13. Where the system is operating
in an intranet environment or there is a local DNS, consult the Network
Administrator for the address to enter here.
DNS Domain: This is the name of the local Domain Name Service (DNS). This
can also be used under Windows networking.
WINS Server IP Address: This is the IP address of the Windows Naming Server
(WINS) if present. WINS provides a lookup service converting NetBios names to
IP addresses.
WINS Scope: Only devices with the same WINS Scope can communicate with
each other on a WINS network. It is an optional WINS value. If the local subnet
uses scopes, the correct one must be specified here.
