Configure DNS

Configure DNS settings to allow the Fiery Server to resolve a name to an IP address.

Before you begin

To allow the Fiery Server to obtain a DNS address automatically, you must first allow the Fiery Server to obtain its

own IP address automatically.

Important: There are two versions of Configure and they are specific to the Fiery Server you are connected to. This

is a combined procedure that describes what to do when connected to a Fiery Server with FS100/100Pro or earlier,

and notes about what to do with FS150/150 Pro or later. If you are not sure which version of Configure you are

using, see Which version of Configure am I using? on page 27.

From Configure, choose Network > Protocol > TCP/IP > DNS.

Note: If you are connected to a Fiery Server with FS150/150Pro, you can find settings mentioned in this

procedure in Network > IPv4 Address instead.

To obtain a DNS address automatically, select Get DNS Address Automatically.

To assign DNS server IP addresses manually, clear this option.

Note: If you are connected to a Fiery Server with FS150/150Pro, set Configure DNS Server to Automatic

instead.

If you are manually assigning DNS server IP addresses, type the primary DNS server IP address, secondary DNS

server IP address, and domain name.

Apply or save your changes.

Configure WINS server (name resolution)

You can specify whether to use a WINS server for name resolution. This allows users to access network resources by

name instead of IP address.

Before you begin

To allow the Fiery Server to obtain a WINS address automatically, you must first allow the Fiery Server to get its own

IP address automatically.

Important: There are two versions of Configure and they are specific to the Fiery Server you are connected to. This

is a combined procedure that describes what to do when connected to a Fiery Server with FS100/100Pro or earlier,

and notes about what to do with FS150/150 Pro or later. If you are not sure which version of Configure you are

using, see Which version of Configure am I using? on page 27.

From Configure, choose Network > Protocol > TCP/IP > WINS Server.

Note: If you are connected to a Fiery Server with FS150/150Pro, you can find settings mentioned in this

procedure in Network > IPv4 Address instead.

Select Use WINS Server.

Note: If you are connected to a Fiery Server with FS150/150Pro, select Confgure WINS Server instead.

Select one of the following:

• Automatically - Specifies the WINS server IP address automatically.

• IP address - Allows you to specify the WINS Server IP address manually.
