DNS Client

If you prefer to use host names to identify network servers rather than IP
addresses, you can configure the AP to act as a Domain Name Service
(DNS) client. When this feature is enabled, the Access Point contacts the
network’s DNS server to translate a host name to the appropriate network
IP address. You can use this DNS Client functionality to identify RADIUS
servers by host name. See

RADIUS

for details.
