    e.g.) http://123.456.7.89
  1. The internal web management page of the machine will appear. Click on Network Configuration.

If the user authentication screen appeared, enter the name and the password you set and click on the Log In button. If you didn't change them, the default setting is:

Name: admin

  1. Click Configure mDNS.


  1. Check if there is a name entered for the mDNS service name.
