Cobalt CacheRaQ 4 User Manual 25

Network settings

You can conﬁgure the following settings for the network:

• Host name

• Domain name

• Default gateway

• IP address of the primary DNS server

• IP address of the secondary DNS server

Network 1 interface settings

You can conﬁgure the following settings for the Network 1 interface:

• IP address

• Subnet mask

Network 2 interface settings

If you selected a conﬁguration that requires the Network 2 interface, you can

conﬁgure the following settings for the Network 2 interface:

• IP address

• Subnet mask

You must enter the host name and domain name of the CacheRaQ 4 and the

IP address for the primary DNS server. If you are not the network administrator,

you can obtain the correct values for these ﬁelds from your network

administrator. You can also conﬁgure the Network 2 IP address and subnet mask,

if your conﬁguration requires the use of the second network interface. Finally,

you can conﬁgure the default Gateway IP address.

An optional CacheRaQ 4 feature is to run a local caching-only DNS server. If

you enter 127.0.0.1 as the IP address of the primary DNS server, the local

caching-only DNS server is enabled. You may wish to run the local DNS server

if, for example, your normal DNS server is not in close network proximity to

your CacheRaQ 4.

✍

Note: If the IP address that you assign to a secondary network

interface is on the same subnet as the IP address of the primary

network interface, both network interfaces must be connected to the

same physical network. If they are not, the CacheRaQ 4 will not be

available on the network.
