DNS Questions

Hi guys

 

I am not a network person and I need some help setting up my Axis Camera that will sent email with image from 1 account to another.

 

First some info, I am using static IP for my camera 192.168.0.101 for example and I change port 9980 for port forwarding(it worked). my router is set to DHCP from 201 to 250

 

When I setup my email in SMTP it ask me for DNS (shown below)

 

"If a host name is used, a valid DNS server must be specified in the TCP/IP network settings."

 

This Message is from the Axis Web Interface

it require me to input the following in TCP/IP Advance Tab

 

Domain name:

Primary DNS server:

Secondary DNS server:

 

I tried the following but didn't work

 

looked up DNS IP by using ipconfig/all 67.###.###.### , didn't work

also tried

Domain name: google.com

Primary DNS server: 8.8.8.8

Secondary DNS server: 8.8.4.4

didn't work

 

So what should I put in those 3 box and how do I find out what to put there

 

I lookup the SMTP setting too but I think they are right

 

smtp.GMX.com

Port 25

 

or

 

smtp.Gmail.com

 

Did I do anything wrong? what else can I do?

 

Thanks for your help

For the domain/dns, leave the domain blank and put in the dns servers you have listed. If it asks for a domain, put in the name of your network (the one you use to share computers).

 

For setting up the email, look up gmail's instructions on how to set up a 'generic email client' and it should give you all the servers.
