Network

•Idle timeout. Specify how long your console waits to drop your connection when you exit a TCP/IP application. Options include Immediate, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, or Never (until the power is off or your console times out).

•Query DNS. Indicate whether a DNS number is required. The Internet uses the Domain Naming System (DNS) to translate the names of host computers into IP addresses. A DNS number (or IP address) identifies a specific server that handles the translation services. Anyone who logs onto the Internet must have a unique identifier—an IP address. This IP address can be either temporary—assigned automatically each time you log on—or permanent. Not all systems require that you enter a DNS number; check with your system administrator to see if it is required.
