DNS Domain is the domain name used by the DNS server. For example, a domain name could appear similar to “server.company.com”.

DHCP enables/disables support for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). When enabled, the TC2201 will retrieve a dynamic IP address from a DHCP server located on the Ethernet network that the TC2201 is connected to. The default setting is Enabled. If DHCP is changed from Disabled to Enabled, it is necessary to reboot the TC2201 before an IP address will be requested from the DHCP server. After the TC2201 finishes rebooting, the QVM session will have to be restarted. The TC2201's IP address will be different than the former non-DHCP IP address.

Note: To use the DHCP feature, a DHCP server must be operational on the Ethernet network connected to the TC2201. If the DHCP feature is used when there is no DHCP server, the standard for DHCP requires that the TC2201 wait three minutes for a response from a DHCP server before timing out. During this period, the TC2201 menus and functions will not be accessible.

A DHCP server may allow the setup of a lease reservation for an IP address if provided with the MAC address of the TC2201. This forces the DHCP server to always provide the same IP address to the TC2201. This setup is useful for remote management of the TC2201 via Telnet or Visual Manager. Because the method of setting up a lease reservation varies depending on the DHCP server, it is recommended to contact your Network Administrator for assistance.

Override Settings are provided to enhance inter operability with some devices that require special consideration during setup of the TC2201. Access to the Overrides Settings is reserved for authorized Quantum technicians. Selecting the Go button opens a login prompt for which an authorized technician will have the appropriate user name and password.
