DNS
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a distributed hierarchical
naming system for computers, services, or any resource con-
nected to the Internet or a private network. It associates the
information with domain names assigned to each of the partici-
pants. Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful
to humans into the numerical (binary) identifiers associated with
networking equipment for the purpose of locating and address-
ing these devices worldwide. In MegaRAC GUI, the DNS
Server settings page is used to manage the DNS settings of a
device.
To open DNS Server Settings page, click Configuration > DNS
from the main menu. A sample screenshot of DNS Server Set-
tings Page is shown in the screenshot below.
