Displaying the
DNS Cache
Use the IP Service > DNS - Cache page to display entries in the DNS cache that have
been learned via the designated name servers.
Command Usage
Servers or other network devices may support one or more connections via
multiple IP addresses. If more than one IP address is associated with a host name
via information returned from a name server, a DNS client can try each address in
succession, until it establishes a connection with the target device.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆ No. – The entry number for each resource record.
◆ Flag – The flag is always “4” indicating a cache entry and therefore unreliable.
◆ Type – This field includes CNAME which specifies the host address for the
owner, and ALIAS which specifies an alias.
◆ IP – The IP address associated with this record.
◆ TTL – The time to live reported by the name server.
◆ Host – The host name associated with this record.
