To configure the global DNS settings:

Specify whether to enable or disable the administrative status of the DNS Client.

Enable - Allow the switch to send DNS queries to a DNS server to resolve a DNS 

domain name. Default value is Enable.

Disable - Prevent the switch from sending DNS queries.

Enter the DNS default domain name to include in DNS queries. When the system is 
performing a lookup on an unqualified hostname, this field is provided as the domain name 
(for example, if default domain name is netgear.com and the user enters test, then test is 
changed to test.netgear.com to resolve the name). The length of the name should not be 
longer than 255 characters.

Use Retry Number to specify the number of times to retry sending DNS queries to DNS 
server. This number ranges from 0 to 100. The default value is 2.

Use Response Timeout (secs) to specify the amount of time, in seconds, to wait for a 
response to a DNS query. This timeout ranges from 0 to 3600. The default value is 3.

To specify the DNS server to which the switch sends DNS queries, enter an IP address in 
standard IPv4 dot notation in the DNS Server Address and click Add. The server appears 
in the list below. You can specify up to eight DNS servers. The precedence is set in the 
order created.
