Can't set iLO DNS servers via Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility

DL360 Gen9 with an iLO4 on Windows server x64.

I understand that I can set the DNS server information when I access the iLO config menu when booting the server, but I'm trying to perform the same task while the server is online from within the  Lights-Out Online Configuration Utility.    I appear to have limited network configuration options available in the LO Online Config Utility, as only IP, Mask, Gateway, and DNS Host Name are "editable".   The DNS server config is greyed out and cannot be modified.

It looks like I could also configure the iLO DNS Server names using HPONCFG from a command line within the server OS.

It seems odd that DNS servers can't be added within the Utility GUI though.  I've got be missing something, anyone familiar with this?

Normaly you need to uncheck the Enable DHCP(v4 or v6) to change the IP, subnet etc.

Do you see  if have administrator priority to do this changes this.
