5.2 DNS

The resolving of IP addresses to host names/domains and vice

versa is managed by the DNS. The required information (IP ad-

dresses of at least one DNS server) is normally provided by your

ISP. But the HorstBox is also able to detect the DNS servers

available automatically.

Choose whether to use the Domain Name Service (DNS) and if so,

which server to use.

Note:

This option refers to the internet connecting only. It may

to let the HorstBox detect your ISP’s DNS servers automatically.
