DNS configuration
You can enter the addresses of two DNS hosts in the Console Server (the ‘unit’); one
will be the primary host, the other a secondary host. The DNS hosts do not have to be
the same hosts as entered in your unit’s host table. On a remote access connection the
unit will transmit these addresses to a dial-up Windows NT/95 client. Therefore, your
remote user does not have to configure DNS parameters in his/her computer. For
more information on DNS see Appendix D RADIUS & Networking.
To configure DNS host proceed as follows;
1. From the Main menu select ‘network configuration’:
Cli syntax:
add DNS
2. From the network configuration menu, select DNS.
The Add/Delete DNS menu is now displayed.
3. Within the Add/Delete DNS menu select the Add DNS option.
You are now prompted to enter an internet address;
4. Enter this address in dot decimal notation. If you wish, it can be the same address
as a machine already entered in the unit’s host table.
The first host entered becomes the primary DNS host, the next host entered
becomes the secondary host. You can enter a maximum of two DNS hosts.
delete DNS 5. If required, change the DNS entry by deleting it, then entering the replacement
value.
