How to Set Up DNS

DNS (Domain Name Server) resolves domain names to IP addresses for your Sun
StorEdge 5210 NAS system.

Note –

If you are using Dynamic DNS, you do not need to manually update the

DNS database. If you are not using Dynamic DNS, be sure you add the Sun StorEdge
5210 NAS server host name and IP address to the DNS database before you enter the
values in this menu. Refer to your DNS documentation for more information.

To set up DNS:

1. In the navigation panel, select Network Configuration > Configure TCP/IP > Set

Up DNS.

4. Enter the IP address of a DNS Server you want to make available to the network,

then click the

button to add the server to the Server List.

Repeat this step for each DNS server you want to add. You can add up to two DNS
servers to this list.
