The Domain Naming System (DNS) is a mechanism in the Internet for 
translating the names of host computers into IP addresses. When you 
enter a DNS number (or IP address), you are identifying a specific server 
that handles the translation services.

Each IP address has four sections, separated by periods. In the Details 
dialog box, you enter each section separately. Each section of an IP 
address is made up of a number from 0 to 255; numbers are the only 
allowable characters in this field.

Ask your System Administrator for the correct Primary or Secondary DNS 
IP numbers.

Most networks automatically provide DNS information. Leave the 

Query DNS option checked unless you are certain you need to manually 
enter DNS information.
