Section 3 - Configuration
Device
The device settings page allows you to assign a workgroup, name and description to the DNS-313.
Workgroup
Name
Description
Assigns a workgroup name to the DNS-313. The
Workgroup
name is used by Microsoft Windows
networking to organize networks into groups.
Assigns a unique name to the DNS-313. The
Name
assigned here can be used to access the
device from a web browser instead of using the
IP address.
For example:
http://dlink-xxxxxx
The
Name
assigned here is also used by various
network services to identify the device, including
the shared libraries available in iTunes and other
media players.
Assigning a unique name is also useful for
identifying the device if there is more than one
DNS-313 on the network. By default the device
name is dlink-xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is the last six
digits of the MAC address.
Assigns a device description to the DNS-313.
