DOMAIN NAME SERVICE (DNS) COMMANDS
IP
DOMAIN-LOOKUP
ip domain-lookup
Overview This command enables the DNS client on your device. This allows you to use
domain names instead of IP addresses in commands. The DNS client resolves the
domain name into an IP address by sending a DNS inquiry to a DNS server,
specified with the ip name-server command.
The no variant of this command disables the DNS client. The client will not attempt
to resolve domain names. You must use IP addresses to specify hosts in
commands.
Syntax
ip domain-lookup
no ip domain-lookup
Mode Global Configuration
Usage The client is enabled by default. However, it does not attempt DNS inquiries unless
there is a DNS server configured.
For more information about DNS clients, see the IP Feature Overview and
Configuration Guide.
If you are using DNS Relay (see the command ip dns forwarding), you must have IP
domain lookup enabled.
Examples To enable the DNS client on your device, use the following commands:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# ip domain-lookup
To disable the DNS client on your device, use the following commands:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# no ip domain-lookup
