SAGE

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 433

).

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.
