DNS Servers
The DNS Server fields display the IP addresses of Domain Name Service (DNS) servers.
The SyncServer requires a valid DNS server address to resolve domain names. If a DNS
server isn't provided, NTP associations (
NTP - Config ) and the SMTP Gateway
( SERVICES - Email ) must be specified using an IP address. DNS messages are only com-
municated through LAN1 port. The specified DNS servers must be reachable from the LAN1
port.
n
Management Port User DNS Servers : Manually enter one or more DNS Server IP
addresses here, if not supplied by DHCP.
n
Management Port DHCP DNS Servers (Read Only): If LAN1 has DHCP enabled,
and DHCP is configured to supply DNS server addresses, displays the DNS server IP
addresses supplied by DHCP. These values are not user-editable.
