Configuring Domain Name Service

The Domain Naming System (DNS) service on this switch allows host

names to be mapped to IP addresses using static table entries or by

redirection to other name servers on the network. When a client device

designates this switch as a DNS server, the client will attempt to resolve

host names into IP addresses by forwarding DNS queries to the switch,

and waiting for a response.

You can manually configure entries in the DNS table used for mapping

domain names to IP addresses, configure default domain names, or specify

one or more name servers to use for domain name to address translation.

Command Usage

• To enable DNS service on this switch, first configure one or more name

servers, and then enable domain lookup status.

• To append domain names to incomplete host names received from a

DNS client (i.e., not formatted with dotted notation), you can specify a

default domain name or a list of domain names to be tried in sequential

• If there is no domain list, the default domain name is used. If there is a

domain list, the default domain name is not used.
