Configuring Name Resolution | Cisco Systems SOFTWARE RELEASE 2.5

Chapter 4 Configuring the CiscoWorks 1105 and 1130 WLSE

Configuring Name Resolution

Changing the Configuration After Running Setup

To change the information in the setup configuration, use the following CLI commands at any time. For more information about CLI commands, see the User Guide for the Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.5.

You can use CLI commands by connecting to the WLSE through the console or by using Telnet or SSH. Log in initially as the admin user, using the password you created during setup.

•To change the host name, use the hostname command.

•To change the domain name, use the ip-domain-namecommand.

•To change the DNS server, or add up to 2 additional DNS servers, use the ip name-servercommand.

•To configure or reconfigure an Ethernet port, use the interface command.

•To make changes in the HTTPS certificate, use the mkcert command.

Tip To change any other part of the WLSE’s initial configuration, use the erase config command to erase the previous configuration, and rerun the setup program.

Configuring Name Resolution

The WLSE resolves host names by using a Domain Name System (DNS) server, or you can use the import CLI command to add individual hosts or a UNIX-style hosts file. For information on this command, see User Guide for the Wireless LAN Solution Engine, Release 2.5.

If you are using a DNS server, register the system on the DNS server, using the WLSE’s host name as its DNS name.

Configuring the WLSE Without a DNS Server

The WLSE does not require name resolution, but if name resolution is not used, the following problems will occur:

•Host names will not resolve.
