12.5 DNS Server
Use DNS (Domain Name System) to map a domain name to its corresponding IP address and
vice versa, for instance, the IP address of www.zyxel.com is 204.217.0.2. The DNS server is
extremely important because without it, you must know the IP address of a computer before
you can access it.
The Prestige can get the DNS server addresses in the following ways.
1 The ISP tells you the DNS server addresses, usually in the form of an information sheet,
when you sign up. If your ISP gives you DNS server addresses, manually enter them in
the DNS server fields.
2 You can manually enter the IP addresses of other DNS servers. These servers can be
public or private.
12.6 Network Configuration: STATIC
If you were assigned a specific IP address for your Prestige, use the following directions to set
your Prestige to use it.
