AG 5500
84 System Administration
Managing the DNS Options {DNS}
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 AG 5500 utilizes
whichever server is currently available.
Use the following procedure to set the DNS configuration options.
1. From the Web Management Interface, click on Configuration, then DNS. The Domain
Name System (DNS) Settings screen appears:
2. Enter the Host Name (the DNS name of the AG 5500).
3. Enter a valid Domain name (the Internet domain that DNS requests will utilize).
The host name must not contain any spaces.
