associates a computer's name with its IP address so that, to connect to the
computer, you can use its name instead of its IP address. This domain name service

has equivalent capabilities and responsibilities. This differs from client/server
architectures, in which some computers are dedicated to serving the others. In this
manual, a peer-to-peer network refers to when your network is composed of only
your Matrox Iris E-Series and your computer, and these are directly connected to
each other without using another device (for example, a router).

of private IP addresses includes the following:
