DNS:
It is Domain Name Server used to serve the translation between IP address and name
address.
The switch supports DNS client function to re-route the mnemonic name address to
DNS server to get its associated IP address for accessing Internet. User can specify a
DNS IP address for the switch. With this, the switch can translate a mnemonic name
address into an IP address.
There are two ways to specify the IP address of DNS. One is fixed mode, which
manually specifies its IP address, the other is dynamic mode, which is assigned by
DHCP server while DHCP is enabled. DNS can help you easily remember the mnemonic
address name with the meaningful words in it. Default is no assignment of DNS
address.
Default: 0.0.0.0
