Defining DNS addresses in a Simple IP service template

The Domain Naming System (DNS) is a mechanism in the Internet for translating the names of host computers into IP addresses. When you enter a DNS number (or IP address), you are identifying a specific server that handles the translation services.

Each IP address has four sections, separated by periods. In the Details dialog box, you enter each section separately. Each section of an IP address is made up of a number from 0 to 255; numbers are the only allowable characters in this field.

Ask your System Administrator for the correct Primary or Secondary DNS IP numbers.

Note: Most networks automatically provide DNS information. Leave the Query DNS option checked unless you are certain you need to manually enter DNS information.
