10.1 System Overview

In the System screen, you can name your VMG (Host) and give it an associated domain name. Domain
is the name given to a network. It will be required to reach a network from an external point (like the
Internet). Knowing the domain name will allow you to reach a particular network, and knowing the host
name will allow you to reach a particular device. For this reason, accessing a device from another
device within a network may work with just the host name (without the use of the domain name).

10.2 System Settings
