DNS Server IP address is identified on the Domain Details Tab,
page 1285.

Default Cache Enabled: Checkbox When enabled (checked) shares are stored in the default cache. This option is
enabled by default.
When a file is requested, that is also available in the cache, the SonicWALL
WXA series appliance serves the data from that cache as long as the cache file
is valid. If the original file has changed, the parts of the cache that are still valid
may be used. This process reduces the need for data to be sent over the net-
work. This option can be overridden for individual shares.
