Specifying the TDM-E400 / TDM-C400 Name and Network
Domain Name
You can specify an easy-to-remember name for the Ethernet
Modem Router and a domain name for the network on which it
resides. These are used only to simplify access to the Web
Configuration program.
The Name and Domain Name fields display on the System-Modify
page, as shown in Figure 12 on page 44.
You can set a name only, or a name and domain name together.
f If you specify a name only, then the next time you want to
access Web Configuration, you can type this name in the
location box in your Web browser instead of typing the
numeric IP address. For example, if you named the device
myrouter (and left the Domain Name field blank), then you
could type the following in your Web browser to access
Web Configuration:
http://myrouter
f If you also specify a domain name for the ADSL2+ Ethernet
Modem Router, the next time you access Web
Configuration, type the domain name and the device name
in your Web browser. For example, if you entered myrouter
in the Name field and mydomain.com in the Domain Name
field, then you would type the following in your Web
browser to access Web Configuration:
http://myrouter.mydomain.com
After you enter information in these fields, follow steps 3 through 5
on page 44 to save your changes.
Note
Using a name/domain instead of the IP address to access Web
Configuration will work only when the DNS relay feature is enabled.
DNS Relay is automatically enabled when the DNS server address
configured on your PCs is also the address assigned to the LAN
interface on the Ethernet Modem Router. See Chapter 9 for more
information.
