Domain Name Service Commands
27
Command Usage
• Domain names are added to the end of the list one at a time.
• When an incomplete host name is received by the DNS service on this switch, it will work
through the domain list, appending each domain name in the list to the host name, and
checking with the specified name servers for a match.
• If there is no domain list, the domain name specified with the ip domain-name command is
used. If there is a domain list, the default domain name is not used.
Example
This example adds two domain names to the current list and then displays the list.
Console(config)#ip domain-list sample.com.jp
Console(config)#ip domain-list sample.com.uk
Console(config)#end
Console#show dns
