DNS
A domain name server is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP
addresses.
Primary DNS and Secondary DNS
In most cases, a primary and a secondary DNS server are configured on a PC that is
connected to an internet service provider (ISP). There are two DNS servers in case one of
them happens to fail, in which case the second is used to resolve hostnames you enter.
• Note: If the DNS server could not find the correct IP address that's associated with
the host name you enter, the website can't be located and loaded
• While configuring IP in SU few other parameters are to be considered such as:
Network mode: Routing
Nat Status: Enable/Disable
If NAT is turned off, the device will work on pure-router mode.
