Assigning DNS Servers
DNS allows users to specify remote computers by host names, which are character
strings with a mnemonic value, rather than by IP addresses, which are strings of
numbers.
The Cisco Unified IP Conference Station uses DNS servers to resolve the host
name of TFTP servers, Cisco Unified CallManager systems, and web server host
names when the system is configured to use names rather than IP addresses.
To manually configure a DNS server, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Press the
Up
or
Down
scroll button to select DNS.
Step 2
Use the dialing pad to enter a new DNS server address.
Use the

softkey to enter periods (.). Use the
<

Step 3
Press the
Validate
softkey to check the DNS IP Address.
Step 4
Press the
Save
softkey to save your changes.
Configuring VLAN Options
You can change the administrative VLAN used by the
Cisco Unified IP Conference Station. However, if you have an auxiliary VLAN

the Cisco Unified IP Conference Station.
To manually configure the administrative VLAN ID on the
Cisco Unified IP Conference Station, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Press the
Up
or
Down
scroll button to select Adm VLAN.
