Wyse Network Router 1 Manual De Usuario

Chapter 3

Use the following guidelines:
• DNS Domain and DNS Servers - Use of DNS is optional. DNS allows you to specify 

remote systems by their host names rather than IP addresses. If a specific IP address 
(instead of a name) is entered for a connection, it rather than DNS will be used to make 
the connection. Enter the DNS Domain and the network address of an available DNS 
Server. The function of the DNS Domain entry is to provide a default suffix to be used 
in name resolution. The values for these two boxes may be supplied by a DHCP 
server. If the DHCP server supplies these values, they will replace any locally 
configured values. If the DHCP server does not supply these values, the locally 
configured values will be used.

You may enter two DNS Server addresses, separated by a semicolon, 
comma, or space. The first address is for the primary DNS server and the 
second is for a backup DNS server.

• WINS Servers - Use of WINS is optional. Enter the network address of an available 

WINS name server. WINS allows you to specify remote systems by their host names 
rather than IP addresses. If a specific IP address (instead of a name) is entered for a 
connection, it rather than WINS will be used to make the connection. These entries can 
be supplied through DHCP if DHCP is used. DNS and WINS provide essentially the 
same function, name resolution. If both DNS and WINS are available, the thin client will 
attempt to resolve the name using DNS first and then WINS.

You may enter two WINS Server addresses, separated by a semicolon, 
comma, or space. The first address is for the primary WINS server and the 
second is for a backup WINS server.
