Configuring the ProCurve Secure Router as a DNS Client

1. The router automatically acts as a DNS client. If this function has been
turned off, you can re-enable it from the global configuration mode
context.
Syntax: ip domain-lookup
2. Specify IP address(es) for the router's name server(s) from the global
configuration mode context.
Syntax: ip name-server <A.B.C.D> <secondary A.B.C.D>
You can enter up to six name servers.
3. If so desired, add entries for devices on the network to the local host table.
Enter this command from the global configuration mode context:
Syntax: ip host <hostname> <A.B.C.D>
For example:
ProCurve(config)# ip host www 192.168.3.25
4. Configure a default domain name for the router.
Syntax: ip domain-name <domain name>
For example:
ProCurve(config)# ip domain-name procurve.com
