If there is a tool that was released that doesn't support mDNS, then you should report that as a bug on the collab.net site.

It's the Smart Dashboard IP camera widget. We were told it was a known problem that it only
accepts numeric ips. I didn't find a bug report for it, so I've entered it here:

(and boy that is not especially easy or obvious; you have to 'Plan' to add an artifact...)

Yeah, okay, calling it obvious is perhaps a stretch. But if you presume the FMS is running on a 10.0.0.X ip, and you have no default gateway, then a netmask 255.0.0.0 makes sense. (And yes, I agree, habit dictates 255.255.255.0).
