About DNS Servers

In order to use

URI dialing

or

ENUM dialing

,

you must specify a DNS server to be queried
for address resolution. You can specify up to
5 DNS servers. Normally only the first DNS
server will be queried, but if it fails to respond,
all DNS servers will be queried.

About the DNS Domain Name

The DNS Domain Name is used when
attempting to resolve server addresses
configured on the VCS that are not fully
qualified. It applies only to the following:

LDAP server
NTP server
External Manager server.

The DNS Domain Name is appended to the
server address before a query to the DNS
server is executed. Note however that DNS
will also be queried for the server address as
configured, without the DNS Domain Name
appended. For this reason we recommend
that all server addresses use a FQDN.
The DNS Domain name plays no part in URI
dialing.
