DNS IP Address
Domain Name Service (DNS) servers are used on the internet to
maintain information about which Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
name relates to which internet IP address. For example, the URL:
WWW.CNN.COM, is a pseudonym for the IP address: 207.25.71.25.
DNS entries allow users to access resources using URLs instead of
IPs.
Options: Any internet DNS server IP address available
through the WAN connection. This address should be pro-
vided by your ISP. (Note that without a DNS server IP,
internet sites will only be available using IP addresses and will
not be available using URLs.)
Default Value: 0.0.0.0
Must Be User Modified? Yes.
Description: A Domain Name Service (DNS) server address is
used to translate URLs into their corresponding IP addresses.
ISP Account -> Phone Number
In order for the internet/print server to control the modem to dial the
phone, you must enter the dial-up phone number for your ISP. If
you need to dial an area code in order to call the number, it must be
included in this setting. If you must dial #, 0, 9 or some other
number in order to get an outside phone connection, that information
must be included in how this setting is configured.
Options: For dial-up connections, the local ISP phone num-
ber, complete without spaces, hyphens or other punctuation
(commas may be used to indicate a pause). The maximum
length is 20 characters.
