The Real User Analyzer, Real User Collector, or Real User Monitor components are a network appliance. To interoperate with external network appliances that use host names instead of IP addresses, such as time servers, SMTP servers, or SNMP servers, you must set up a domain name system (DNS) client for a component.
To configuring the network identity settings for the BMC Application Management Console, see Establishing a DNS identity for the BMC Application Management Console .
Configuring DNS client settings for an Analyzer or a Collector component includes the following procedures:
Note
When you configure DNS settings, ensure that host names do not contain underscore (_) characters, because the system refers to such host names as IP addresses.
