communicate with the TelePresence Server,
without needing to know its IP address.
Required when DNS configuration is Manual.
If an optional second name server is
configured, the TelePresence Server may
send DNS queries to either name server.
Add a suffix if you want to use unqualified host
names to refer to devices (instead of using IP
addresses).
For example, if the domain name (suffix) is set
to cisco.com, then a request to the name
server to look up the IP address of host
endpoint will actually look up
endpoint.cisco.com.
