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.
