System Name

Ethernet network. It is recommended you enter your computer’s

how to find your computer’s name).

 

This name can be up to 30 alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are

 

not allowed, but dashes “-” and underscores "_" are accepted.

 

 

Domain Name

Enter the domain name (if you know it) here. If you leave this field

 

blank, the ISP may assign a domain name via DHCP.

 

The domain name entered by you is given priority over the ISP

 

assigned domain name.

recommended).
