Setting the DNS Options
DNS allows subscribers to enter meaningful URLs into their browsers (instead of complicated
numeric IP addresses) by automatically converting the URLs into the correct IP addresses. You
can assign a primary, secondary, or tertiary (third) DNS server. The Access Gateway utilizes
whichever server is currently available.
You must configure DNS if you want to enter meaningful URLs instead of numeric
IP addresses into any of the Access Gateway's configuration screens.
Use the following procedure to set the DNS configuration options.
Enter
