l The DNS Suffix Search List and DNS IP Addresses cannot be modified if the DXi4700 is currently
joined to a Windows domain. To disjoin a Windows domain, see .
Hostname The hostname of the DXi4700.
The Hostname cannot be blank and must contain only letters
[ A–Z, a–z ], numbers [ 0–9 ], and hyphens [ - ].
Default Gateway The default gateway IP address.
Specifying a default gateway is optional if all access is local to a particular
subnet. For example, if the DXi4700 and all of its clients are on the same
subnet, you do not need to specify a default gateway.
Caution: Specifying a default gateway is required to enable
connectivity with all subnets other than those that the DXi4700 is
directly connected to. For example, if the DXi4700 and its clients are
on different subnets, or you are using an external NTP server, you
must specify a default gateway.
DNS Suffix Search List (Optional) The domain list to search when resolving domain names.
The list may be either a single domain name or a comma-separated list of up
to 6 domain names. The first domain name listed is used as the local
domain. Domain names must contain only letters [ A–Z, a–z ], numbers [ 0–
9 ], dots [ . ], and hyphens [ - ].
Primary, Secondary, and
Tertiary DNS IP Address
(Optional) The IP addresses of up to three DNS servers used to resolve
domain names and translate them into IP addresses.
Note: You must specify a DNS IP address if you plan to use hostname
format when configuring an NTP time server, outgoing e-mail server,
replication sources and targets, and other information.
