3 Configuring the Switch

If there is no domain list, the default domain name is used. If there is a domain list, the default domain name is not used.

When an incomplete host name is received by the DNS service on this switch and a domain name list has been specified, the switch will work through the domain list, appending each domain name in the list to the host name, and checking with the specified name servers for a match.

When more than one name server is specified, the servers are queried in the specified sequence until a response is received, or the end of the list is reached with no response.

Note that if all name servers are deleted, DNS will automatically be disabled.
