ProSecure Web/Email Security Threat Management (STM) Appliance Looking Up a DNS Address A Domain Name Server (DNS) converts the Internet name (for example, www.netgear.com) to an IP address. If you need the IP address of a Web, FTP, mail, or other server on the Internet, request a DNS lookup to find the IP address. To look up a DNS address: 1. Locate the Perform a DNS Lookup section on the Diagnostics screen. In the Domain Name field, enter a domain name. 2. Click the Lookup button. The results of the lookup action are displayed below the Domain Name field. Testing a URL Testing a URL allows you to verify that the STM can connect to the Internet.
