Configuring DNS

DNS name servers

DNS name servers are specified by using the system name-server command.

Note: The order in which the DNS name servers are added to the configuration is the order in which they are accessed.

The following table shows how to specify two DNS name servers for the system: one at 172.16.0.34 and the other at 10.10.40.34.

To specify DNS name servers, perform the following steps in configuration mode.
