3.3 How to Configure the DNS
DNS is a service that translates domain names into IP addresses.
Using DNS, names can be assigned to IP addresses and vice versa. If a
DNS server is available in your network, you can use DNS for your
SND Server.
If you use a domain name during the configuration process, you
must first enable and configure DNS. DNS is used for the
configuration of the time server, for example.
Proceed as follows:
1. Start the mySND Control Center.
2. Select NETWORK โ DNS.
3. Configure the DNS parameters; see: Table 4 ร๎31.
4. Click Save & Restart to confirm.
ยช The settings will be saved.
Automatic configuration Enables/disables the automatic assignment of the IPv6
address for the SND Server.
IPv6 address Defines a manually assigned IPv6 Unicast address in the
n:n:n:n:n:n:n:n format for the SND Server.
Every 'n' represents the hexadecimal value of one of the
eight 16 bit elements of the address. An IPv6 address
may be entered or displayed using a shortened version
when successive fields contain all zeros (0). In this case,
two colons (::) are used.
Router Defines the IPv6 unicast address of the router. The SND
Server sends its 'Router Solicitations' (RS) to this router.
Prefix length Defines the length of the subnet prefix for the IPv6
address. The value 64 is preset.
Address ranges are indicated by prefixes. The prefix
length (number of bits used) is added to the IPv6
address and specified as a decimal number. The decimal
number is separated by '/'.
