Configuring Dynamic Domain Name Resolution - HP 830 Series Configuration Manual

Step
2. Configure a mapping
between a host name
and an IPv4 address.

Configuring dynamic domain name resolution

To send DNS queries to a correct server for resolution, you must enable dynamic domain name resolution
and configure a DNS server.
In addition, you can configure a DNS suffix that the system automatically adds to the provided domain
name for resolution.
Configuration guidelines
Follow these guidelines when you configure dynamic domain name resolution:
• You can configure up to six DNS servers, including those with IPv6 addresses, in system view, and
up to six DNS servers on all interfaces of a device.
A DNS server configured in system view has a higher priority than one configured in interface view.
•
A DNS server configured earlier has a higher priority than one configured later in the same view.
A DNS server manually configured has a higher priority than one dynamically obtained through
DHCP. A name query request is first sent to the DNS server that has the highest priority. If no reply
is received, it is sent to the DNS server that has the second highest priority, and so on in turn.
• You can specify up to ten DNS suffixes.
Configuration procedure
To configure dynamic domain name resolution:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable dynamic domain
name resolution.
3. Specify a DNS server.
4. Configure a DNS suffix.
Command
ip host hostname ip-address
Command
system-view
dns resolve
•
Approach 1 (In system view):
dns server ip-address
•
Approach 2 (In interface view):
a. interface interface-type
interface-number
b. dns server ip-address
c. quit
dns domain domain-name
68
Remarks
Not configured by default.
The IPv4 address you last assign to the host
name overwrites the previous one if there is
any.
You may create up to 50 static mappings
between domain names and IPv4 addresses.
Remarks
N/A
Disabled by default.
Use at least one approach.
No DNS server is specified by
default.
Optional.
By default, no DNS suffix is
configured and only the provided
domain name is resolved.
