If the Model 336 is connected to a network with Dynamic DNS (DDNS) capability, a
DNS entry is automatically created using the Preferred Hostname and Preferred
Domain Name parameters and the assigned IP address. The Preferred Domain Name
parameter can only be accessed using the NET interface command (section 6.6.1), or
by using the Ethernet configuration page (section 6.4.2) of the embedded website on
the Model 336.
If DNS reverse-lookup is enabled on the network DNS server, and the DNS address
parameters are correctly configured, the Model 336 will perform a reverse-lookup to
determine if a domain name is assigned for the Model 336’s configured IP address.
This will occur regardless of whether the domain name was configured dynamically
using DDNS, or manually by the network administrator. The returned domain name
will appear in the Actual Hostname parameter, in the View IP Config submenu of the
Interface Setup menu.
When using naming systems other than DNS, the Model 336 cannot assign the Preferred
Domain Name or retrieve the Actual Domain Name.

The Preferred Domain name can only be entered using a computer interface NET
command, and viewed using the NET? query. Refer to section 6.6.1 for details on the
NET command and query.
6.4.2 Viewing Ethernet
Configuration
When the Ethernet interface is enabled, two submenus become available: Modify IP
Config, and View IP Config. All configurable settings are available under the Modify IP
Config submenu, and the current state of the Ethernet configuration is detailed in the
View IP Config submenu. This is designed to eliminate confusion as to which are the
configurable Static-IP settings, and which are the currently configured settings that
could have been configured using any of the three configuration methods (DHCP,
Auto-IP, or Static-IP). The method used for the currently established connection is
shown in the LAN Status parameter of the View IP Confi submenu (section 6.4.2.1).
6.4.2.1 LAN Status
The LAN Status parameter indicates the current status of the Ethernet configuration.
This read-only parameter can be accessed using the View IP Config menu.
The possible LAN Status states are:
D
Connected–Static: the IP address parameters have been successfully configured
using the Static-IP method
D
Connected–DHCP: the IP address parameters have been successfully configured
using the DHCP method
D
Connected–AutoIP: the IP address parameters have been successfully configured
using the AutoIP method
D
Addr Not Acquired: the IP address parameters were not successfully configured.
D
Duplicate Init IP: when initially attempting to connect to the network, the Static-
IP address was found to be in use by another device already configured on the
network. The Model 336 interface will remain unconfigured until an available
Static-IP address is entered.
D
Duplicate Ong IP: an ongoing conflict occurred after being successfully con-
nected to the network, because another device on the network was configured
using the same IP address. The Model 336 will automatically unconfigure and
remain unconfigured until an available IP address is entered.
D
Cable Unplugged: the Ethernet cable is either unplugged at one end, or has been
damaged
