not add the prefix "http://". The SonicWALL then query the DNS server and display
the result at the bottom of the screen.
Note: You must define a DNS server IP address in the
Network
tab of the
General
section to perform a DNS Name Lookup.
Find Network Path
The
Find Network Path
tool shows whether an IP host is located on the LAN, the
WAN or the DMZ. This is helpful to determine if the SonicWALL is properly configured.
For example, if the SonicWALL “thinks” that a machine on the Internet is located on
the LAN port, then the SonicWALL Network or Intranet settings may be misconfigured.
Find Network Path
shows if the target device is behind a router, and the Ethernet
address of the target device.
Find Network Path
also shows which gateway the
device is using which helps isolate configuration problems.
