Domain Name System (DNS) Services
Quick Start
Configuring the ProCurve Secure Router as a Name Server
1. Enable DNS proxy from the global configuration mode context:
Syntax: ip domain-proxy
2. Add entries for static devices on the network to the local host table.
Syntax: ip host <hostname> <A.B.C.D>
For example:
ProCurve(config)# ip host www 192.168.3.25
3. Configure a default domain name for the router.
Syntax: ip domain-name <domain name>
For example:
ProCurve(config)# ip domain-name procurve.com
4. Specify IP address(es) for the DNS server(s) to which the router should
forward requests it cannot translate.
Syntax: ip name-server <A.B.C.D> <secondary A.B.C.D>
You can specify up to six DNS servers.
Configuring a Dynamic DNS Client on a ProCurve Secure
Router Interface
These interfaces can run the Dynamic DNS client:
■ Ethernet interfaces
■ Ethernet subinterfaces (VLAN interfaces)
■ PPP interfaces
■ HDLC interfaces
■ Frame Relay subinterfaces
■ ATM subinterfaces
1. From the global configuration mode context, move to the correct inter-
face configuration mode context.
Syntax: interface <interface ID>
For example:
ProCurve(config)# interface atm 1.1
