Gateway and Network Configuration
1-10 System Guide
3. Provides other configuration information such as printer
addresses, time and news servers.
Name services
The following services are supported by DocuSP software.
Windows Internet Name Service (WINS)
This network configuration option allows the administrator to
enable/disable the WINS service. The text entry option when
left blank allows WINS to broadcast the request to the first
available WINS server on the network.WINS provides the
ability to easily locate devices on the network, similar to
Domain Name System (DNS). WINS maintains a database of
NetBIOS names -to-IP address mappings so administrators
and applications can specify a name rather than an IP
address for a particular network resource. One of the
problems it solves is the need for manual updates to a
database when information for particular clients is changed.
Domain Name Service (DNS)
The DNS service maintains host names to IP Address
mappings. DNS is also a Directory Service that stores
arbitrary objects not necessarily related to name-to-IP
information.
In Network Configuration, using the DNS tab, the
administrator can enable/disable DNS. If enabled is selected,
the administrator must provide the information requested in
the text entry windows.
The DNS protocol has also been enhanced to allow for
dynamic updating of DNS. The enhancement is referred to as
Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS). To invoke this
service the administrator enables it on the DNS tab.
NOTE: For specific procedures see the Online Help.
Network Information Services (NIS/NIS+)
NIS and NIS+ are network lookup services that provide
information that must be known throughout the network as
well as alll machines on the network.
