DNS and Domain Names Configuration

The DNS page is used to set a host name for your Exinda appliance and to configure the location of your DNS server(s). You can also configure domain names that can be used to resolve hostnames in other configuration screens.

The Exinda appliance hostname should be unique on the network. The DNS server setting may be dynamic, configured by the DHCP server, or it could be configured by entering one or more IP addresses of your DNS server(s).

Note

A valid DNS server is required for Edge Cache, system alerts, scheduled reports, firmware updates, license updates, and Anonymous Proxy updates
