Configuring A Domain Name Suffix For The Dhcp Client; Configuring Dns Servers For The Dhcp Client - H3C S5600 Series Operation Manual

Operation Manual – DHCP
H3C S5600 Series Ethernet Switches
Note:
In the same DHCP global address pool, the network command can be executed
repeatedly. In this case, the new configuration overwrites the previous one.
The dhcp server forbidden-ip command can be executed repeatedly. That is, you
can configure multiple IP addresses that are not dynamically assigned to DHCP
clients.
If an IP address that is not to be automatically assigned has been configured as a
statically-bound IP address, the DHCP server still assigns this IP address to the
client whose MAC address or ID has been bound.

2.4.5 Configuring a Domain Name Suffix for the DHCP Client

You can configure a domain name suffix in each DHCP address pool on the DHCP
server. The DHCP server will provide the domain name suffix together with an IP
address to the DHCP client.
With this suffix assigned, the client needs only input part of the domain name, and the
system will add the domain name suffix for name resolution. For details about DNS,
refer to DNS Operation in this manual.
Follow these steps to configure a domain name suffix for the DHCP client:
Enter system view
Enter DHCP address pool

Configure a domain name
suffix for the client

2.4.6 Configuring DNS Servers for the DHCP Client

If a client accesses a host on the Internet through domain name, DNS (domain name
system) is needed to translate the domain name into the corresponding IP address. To
enable DHCP clients to access hosts on the Internet through domain names, a DHCP
server is required to provide DNS server addresses while assigning IP addresses to
DHCP clients. Currently, you can configure up to eight DNS server addresses for a
DHCP address pool.
