== Local DNS - can't have dashes in hostnames ==
====Issue Description====
When adding hostname/address pairs in the local DNS ("Network Setting" > "DNS") hostnames can't have dashes/hyphens in them. Error displayed when trying to apply the details is "Host Name is invalid".
====Date Reported====
2016-10-22
====Updates====
None yet.
====Workaround====
Enter the hostname(s) without dashes. Save the router's configuration to a local file ("Maintenance" > "Configuration" > "Backup"). Edit that local file to put the dashes into the hostname(s). Restore the router's configuration from that modified file ("Maintenance" > "Configuration", then "Restore Configuration" section).
====Resolution====
None yet.
