DNS Server (Default: 0.0.0.0)
The entry contains the IP address of the DNS server (Do-
main Name System). The latter is needed in all client mo-
des of the Com-Server (TCP, UDP, Telnet, FTP client) if the
destination system is to be stored in the configuration not
as a numerical IP address, but rather in the form of a host
name or URL. The name is resolved by the Com-Server is
done via UDP using standard port 53 reserved for the DNS.
The Time-To-Live of the IP address resolved for a host
name is determined by the Time-To-Live parameter contai-
ned in the response from the DNS server. After the name
has been successfully resolved this time is displayed in the
menu item

n
MTU – Maximum Transfer Unit (Default: 560)
This value determines the maximum size of a TCP/IP pak-
ket. It refers to the number of bytes (excluding header)
that can be sent in a packet. The smaller the MTU, the
more network buffer overall is available in the Com-Server.
The selectable range begins at 560 and ends at 1024
bytes. The values can be set in increments of 128 bytes
(automatic correction).
n
DHCP Client (Default: 1 = ON)
The DHCP protocol is activated with the factory settings
(menu entry = 1). The Com-Server attempts to find a DHCP
server and get an IP address from it. Entering 0 deactiva-
tes DHCP and the Com-Server works statically with the IP
address assigned to it. More information on how DHCP
works can be found in the section IP Assignment via DHCP
Protocol.

To prevent unintended address assignments or
changes, we recommend deactivating the DHCP pro-
tocol if it is not expressly used in the respective network
environment.
