DNS:
A DNS, or Domain Name Server, is used to provide the translation
between IP addresses and name addresses.
The switch supports DNS client functions to re-route the mnemonic name
address to the DNS server to get its associated IP address for accessing
the Internet. The user can specify a DNS IP address for the switch. With
this, the switch can translate a mnemonic name address into an IP
address.
There are two ways to specify the IP address of DNS. One is fixed mode,
which manually specifies its IP address, the other is dynamic mode,
which is assigned by the DHCP server while DHCP is enabled. DNS can
help you easily remember the mnemonic address name with the
meaningful words in it. Default value is no assignment of the DNS
address.
Default: 0.0.0.0
