Following is a sample time setting dialog. In addition to setting the time zone, time and date are changed, and SNTP unicast updates are configured.

Would you like to enter the Time settings menu? [no]: y

Enter time zone name [UTC]: ISR

Enter time zone minutes offset from UTC: 120

The local time and date is 15:35:23 ISR FRI July 19 2002 Would you like to set a new time and date? [no]: y

Step 5: Configuring the DNS Settings

The DNS configuration menu defines the IP address of the domain name server, which is used for DNS lookup, as well as the default domain name, which is used to complete unqualified host names.

You may choose to skip the DNS configuration menu if you wish to accept all default values. To configure DNS settings, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Enter the DNS settings menu.

Would you like to enter the DNS configuration menu? [no]: y

Type y and press Enter.

The DNS settings dialog begins.

Step 2 Enable or disable DNS lookup.

•To enable DNS lookup, press Enter.

If you choose to disable DNS lookup, skip the rest of this section and go to Step 6: Configuring the RDR Formatter Destination (on page 5-11). The rest of the dialog is not presented, as it is irrelevant when DNS lookup is disabled.

Step 3 Type the default domain name to be used, and press Enter. Note that there is no default domain name.

You may accept the default domain name or enter a new one.

Enter default domain name []:

Step 4 Type the IP address of the primary domain name server and press Enter.
