EXTender 1100A Switch and Remote Module System Administrator’s

Advanced IP Parameters – DNS
This parameter allows the System Administrator to find the Switch Module by an assigned
name. A Domain Name Server (DNS) is used in IP networks for translating a host domain
name into an IP address. This information is stored in a DNS server. The information
required for these fields should be obtained from the corporate IT manager. Enabling DNS
on the Switch Module allows the System Administrator to search for it by its name and/or
IP address. The DNS parameter is NOT enabled by default. The Switch Module DNS
(Domain Name Server) configuration screen is shown below:
