DNS configuration
DNS server
A DNS server may be required when the module itself, a communications partner, or for
example an FTP server should be reachable via the host name (FQDN). If you specify the
address of a device as FQDN, you need to configure a DNS server. In this case, the IP
address of the device is determined via the configured DNS server.
Max. 3 DNS servers can be configured for the CP. The 4th configured DNS server is not
evaluated.

FTP communication
FTPS access only with security functions enabled
FTPS access to the S7-1500 station as an FTP server is only possible if a user with suitable
rights has been created in the STEP 7 project. This means that the security functions must
be enabled on the CP. For this, security settings are available in the global user
administration.
