LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, DNS IP Address
Canopy devices allow for configuration of a preferred and alternate DNS server IP address either
automatically or manually. Devices must set DNS server IP address manually when DHCP is
disabled for the management interface of the device. DNS servers may be configured
automatically from the DHCP response when DHCP is enabled for the management interface of
the device. Optionally devices may be configured to set the DNS server IP address manually when
DHCP is enabled for the management interface. The default DNS IP addresses are 0.0.0.0 when
configured manually.

LAN1 Network Interface Configuration, Domain Name

configuration can be used for configuration of the servers in the operator’s network. The default
