Lesson 4 Configuring a DNS Client
13-39
❑ Obtain DNS Server Address Automatically. If you select this option, you
must have a DHCP server available on your network to provide the IP
address of a DNS server.
❑ Use The Following DNS Server Addresses. If you select this option, you
must type in the IP addresses of the DNS servers you want this client to use.
You can enter a Preferred DNS Server address and an Alternate DNS Server
address.
In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog box, you can also click Advanced to
open the Advanced TCP/IP Settings dialog box. Click the DNS tab, on which you can
set additional configurations for DNS (see Figure 13-14). Additional options include the
following:
■ Click Add to enter additional DNS server addresses to the list of servers that service
this computer to resolve DNS domain names.
■ Click Edit to modify the addresses listed (for example, to correct an error you
made in entering an IP address).
■ Click Remove to delete the address of a DNS server from the list.
■ Click the up-pointing arrow or down-pointing arrow to change the order of the
servers listed. These arrows work like the up-pointing and down-pointing arrows
you use to change the binding order. The order in which the addresses are listed
is the order in which the servers are used. If you use the up-pointing arrow to
move an address higher on the list, that server is used before all the servers listed
after it. Conversely, using the down-pointing arrow to move a server lower on the
list causes all servers that are listed above it to be used first to resolve DNS domain
names.
