TCP/IP DNS fields

If connected to a JACE controller, the DNS and gateway settings are also “host-level” parameters in the TCP/IP Configuration view, as shown below.

NOTE: If a Windows-based host, DNS and gateway settings are available under each Interface section.

The available fields for JACE controllers are as follows:

DNS Domain
The TCP/IP Domain Name System (DNS) domain this host belongs to, if used.
IPv4 Gateway
The IP address of the router that forwards packets to other IPv4 networks or subnets. A valid gateway address is required in multi-station (JACE) jobs to allow point discoveries under NiagaraNetworks.
DNSv4 Servers
The IP address of one or more DNS servers (if available), where each can automate associations between hostnames and IPv4 addresses. Included are icon-buttons to Add (to enter IP address of server), Delete, and move Up/Down (to set the DNS search order).
IPv6 Gateway
The IPv6 address for the router that forwards packets to other IPv6 networks or subnets.
DNSv6 Servers
The IPv6 address for one or more IPv6 DNS servers (if available), where each can automate associations between hostnames and IPv6 addresses. Included are icon-buttons to Add (to enter IP address of server), Delete, and move Up/Down (to set the DNS search order).
