Domain Name System Configuration

The Domain Name System (DNS) commands are used for defining the primary and secondary DNS

servers on your local network, and for setting the default domain name served by the switch

services. DNS parameters must be configured prior to using hostname parameters with the ping,

traceroute, and tftp commands.
