14.2.2 Inserting a Name Server Record
Click Insert in the System screen to open this screen. Use this screen to insert a name server
record. A name server record contains a DNS server’s IP address. The LAN-Cell can query the
DNS server to resolve domain names for features like VPN, DDNS and the time server. A
domain zone may also be included. A domain zone is a fully qualified domain name without
the host. For example, proxicast.com is the domain zone for the www.proxicast.com fully
qualified domain name.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
FQDN Type a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of a server. An FQDN starts with a
host name and continues all the way up to the top-level domain name. For
example, www.proxicast.com is a fully qualified domain name, where “www” is the
host, “proxicast” is the second-level domain, and “.com” is the top level domain.
IP Address If this entry is for one of the WAN ports on the LAN-Cell, select WAN Interface
and select WAN or CELLULAR from the drop-down list box.
For entries that are not for the WAN port(s), select Custom and enter the IP
address of the host in dotted decimal notation.
Enable Wildcard Select the check box to enable DNS wildcard.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the LAN-Cell.
