ministrator does not assign a proper IP address to DX-VS1UE.

the network effectively.
DNS Server IP Address

DNS (Domain Name System)
DNS (Domain Name System) is to map between IP address and domain name. Every
network device on the world has its IP address to be connected on Internet. And the
device is to be connected not with its domain name but with its IP address. Common
users are not familiar with IP addresses but with domain names.
If a user accesses a certain network device with its domain name, DNS server resolves the d
omain name into an IP address of the device and replies the result to the user. A lot of DNS
servers are run on Internet worldwide.
