Reverse lookup is disabled by default. Enable this feature unless you have no DNS server configured or

have poor network performance because of heavy network traffic.
With reverse lookup enabled, when a network-related event occurs, both the IP address and the domain
name for the networked device associated with the event are logged in the event log. If no domain name
entry exists for the device, only its IP address is logged with the event. Since domain names generally
change much less frequently than IP addresses, enabling reverse lookup can improve the ability to
identify addresses of networked devices that are causing events to occur.
