12.10 DNS

You can use the device's embedded domain name server (DNS) or an external, third-party
DNS to translate domain names into IP addresses. This is useful if domain names are used
as the destination in call routing. The device supports the configuration of the following
DNS types:

Internal DNS table - see ''Configuring the Internal DNS Table'' on page 149

Internal SRV table - see ''Configuring the Internal SRV Table'' on page 150

12.10.1 Configuring the Internal DNS Table

The Internal DNS table, similar to a DNS resolution can translate up to 20 host (domain)
names into IP addresses. This functionality can be used when a domain name (FQDN) is
configured as an IP destination in a routing rule. Up to three different IP addresses can be
assigned to the same host name.
Note:
domain name is not configured in the table, the device performs a DNS resolution
using an external DNS server for the related IP network interface (see ''Configuring IP
Network Interfaces'' on page 127).
The following procedure describes how to configure the DNS table through the Web
interface. You can also configure it through ini file (DNS2IP) or CLI (configure network >
dns dns-to-ip).
