• Domain Name (option 15): The domain name that the NMC will use (64-character maximum length).

• Boot File Name (from the file field of the DHCP response, described in RFC2131): The fully qualified

directory-path to a user configuration file (.ini file) to download. The siaddr field of the DHCP

response specifies the IP address of the server from which the

NMC will download the .ini file. After

the download, the

NMC uses the .ini file as a boot file to reconfigure its settings.

Port Speed screen

Path: Configuration > Network > Port Speed

The Port Speed setting defines the communication speed of the Ethernet network port. Your current setting is

displayed in Current Speed.

You can change the setting by choosing a radio button under Port Speed:

• For Auto-negotiation (the default), network devices negotiate to transmit at the highest possible speed,

but if the supported speeds of two devices are not matched, the slower speed is used.

• Alternatively, you can choose 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, each with the option of:

– half-duplex (communication in only one direction at a time) or

– full-duplex (communication in both directions on the same channel simultaneously).

DNS screen

Path: Configuration > Network > DNS > Configuration

The values under Domain Name System Status list your current status and setup.

Use the options under Manual Domain Name System Settings to configure he Domain Name System (DNS):

• Enabling the Override Manual DNS Settings means that configuration data from other sources like

DHCP take precedence over the manual configurations here.

• Specify the

Primary DNS Server and, optionally, the Secondary DNS Server with IPv4 or IPv6

addresses. For the

NMC to send e-mail, you must at least define the IP address of the primary DNS

server.

–The

NMC waits up to 15 seconds for a response from the primary DNS server or the secondary

DNS server. If the

NMC does not receive a response within that time, e-mail cannot be sent. Use

DNS servers on the same segment as the

NMC or on a nearby segment, but not across a wide-area

network (WAN).

– After you define the IP addresses of the DNS servers, test it, see “Testing DNS screen”.

• System Name Synchronization: Enabling this synchronizes the DNS hostname with the NMC System

Name. Click on the System Name link to define it.

• Host Name: After you configure a host name here and a domain name in the Domain Name field,

users can enter a host name in any field in the

NMC interface (except e-mail addresses) that accepts a

domain name.
