• Idle timeout. Specify how long your console waits to drop your
connection when you exit a TCP/IP application. Options include
Immediate, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, or Never (until the power is
off or your console times out).
• Query DNS. Indicate whether a DNS number is required. The Internet
uses the Domain Naming System (DNS) to translate the names of host
computers into IP addresses. A DNS number (or IP address) identifies a
specific server that handles the translation services. Anyone who logs
onto the Internet must have a unique identifier—an IP address. This IP
address can be either temporary—assigned automatically each time
you log on—or permanent. Not all systems require that you enter a
DNS number; check with your system administrator to see if it is
required.
