 ===== Pitfalls =====
+=== IP to String ===
+The //IP to String// function converts an IP network address to a string.
+{{:kb:labview:pasted:20240426-075804.png}}
+The ''dot notation?'' input indicates whether ''name'' is in dot-notation format. The default is FALSE, which makes LabVIEW try to resolve the name. This can take a long time depending on the specific DNS setup of the computer this function is executed on.
+To avoid timeouts, if a resolved name is not required, make sure to wire a ''true'' constant to this function.
 === TCP TIME-WAIT ===
