WINS Server (optional)
: WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) resolves Windows
network computer names (NetBIOS names) to IP addresses, allowing Windows computers
on a network to easily find and communicate with each other. Enter the IP address of
the WINS server on the network if available.
DNS Suffix (optional)
: The DNS suffix is used for resolution of unqualified or incomplete
host names.
TFTP Server & Boot File (optional)
: The NAS supports PXE booting of network devices.
Enter the IP address of the TFTP server and the boot file (including directory on the
TFTP server and file name). For remote booting of the devices, enter the public IP
address of the TFTP server.
(ii) DNS Server
A DNS (Domain Name Service) server translates between a domain name (such as
google.com) and an IP address (74.125.31.105). Configure the NAS to obtain a DNS
server address automatically or specify the IP address of a DNS server.
