Command Usage

To enable DNS service on this switch, configure one or more name servers, and enable domain
lookup status (see

“Configuring General DNS Service Parameters”

on page 1081).

When more than one name server is specified, the servers are queried in the specified
sequence until a response is received, or the end of the list is reached with no response.

If all name servers are deleted, DNS will automatically be disabled. This is done by disabling
the domain lookup status.
