Static Primary DNS
Static Secondary DNS: The IPaddressof Domain Name Servers (DNS) used to resolve
computer host names to IPaddresses. Static DNSserversare specified independently of any
network interface and itsconnection state. An IPaddressof 0.0.0.0indicatesno server is
specified.
n
DNS Priority: Alist of DNSservers in priority order used to resolvecomputer host names. Each
typeof server istried, starting with the first in the list. For each server type, the primary server
istried first. If no response isreceived, then the secondary server is tried. If neither server can
be contacted, the next server type in the list istried.
Anetwork interface may obtain a DNSserver from DHCPor other meanswhen it isconnected.
If an interfacedoes not obtain a DNSserver, it will beskipped and the next server in the
priority list will be tried.
To change the priority order, select an item from the list and pressthe up or down arrow.

10: The device operatesat 10 megabitsper second (Mbps) only.
l
100: Thedevice operatesat 100 Mbps only.
l
auto: The device sensesthe Ethernet speed of the network and adjusts automatically.
Thedefault isauto. If oneside of the Ethernet connection isusing auto (negotiating), the other
