Setting the DNS Server
DNS is the abbreviation of Domain Name System, and is
the function that binds an IP address and a name (in this
machine, host name). By setting the DNS server address
for this machine, when accessing this machine through
the network, this machine is accessed not by IP address
but by a name such as "iR-ADV XXXX. "
When using DHCP, the IP address may change, so it
is necessary to update IP addresses bound to names.
In these cases, it is necessary to configure "Dynamic
Update" to update the links between IP addresses and
names.
A dynamic DNS server is required to use DNS Dynamic
Update.
This section describes how to specify the IPv4 settings.
1. Specify the following settings in <IPv4> → press
[Next].
To enable DNS Dynamic Update:

NOTE
Secondary DNS Server:
The substitute DNS server that is used when the
primary DNS server cannot be used. If you do not
want to set the secondary DNS server, enter '0.0.0.0' .
When using DNS Dynamic Update, setting this is not
necessary.
2. Enter [Host Name] and [Domain Name] for <IPv4> →
press [Next].
[Host Name]:
The name that appears on the network (the machine's
name, etc.)

3. Specify <DNS Dynamic Update> for <IPv4> → press
[OK].
