Note: The purpose of this property page is to allow you to enter the addresses of EXTERNAL DNS servers. The DataSafe NAS does not contain a DNS server.

For example, a workstation configured to use DNS name resolution could use the command ping remotehost rather than ping 1.2.3.4 if the mapping for the system named remotehost was contained in the DNS database. DNS domains should not be confused with Microsoft Windows domains.

In the DNS client-server model, the server containing information about a portion of the DNS database (the portion that makes computer names available to clients) queries for name resolution across the Internet.

To set the DataSafe NAS to automatically obtain DNS information from a DHCP server

1.On the primary menu bar, click Network Setup.

2.On the Network Setup page, click Interfaces.

3.On the Object Selection table, select the network connection to modify.

4.On the Tasks list, select DNS.

The DNS Configuration page (Figure 8) displays.
