ip name-server

assigned ones.
Parameters
<primary>
<secondary>
ip name-server cache
Supported on: Wi² AP
ip name-server cache
Enables the DNS cache.
no ip name-server cache
Disables the DNS cache.
Once a host name has been successfully resolved to an IP address by a
remote DNS server, it is stored in the cache. This speeds up network
performance, as the remote DNS server now does not have to be queried for
subsequent requests for this host.
The entry stays in the cache until:
• an error occurs when connecting to the remote host
• the time to live (TTL) of the DNS request expires
• the Wi² AP is restarted.
