Syntax:
config dns zones <zonename> hostnames create <atypehostname>
where:
zonename is the name of the zone under which you wish to create a new host.
atypehostname is the name of the host you wish to create. The wildcard (*) and null (@) symbols can be substituted as a valid hostname.
A wildcard (*) can be substituted for a hostname. If a request is made for an unconfigured hostname within a zone, all of the VIPs associated with the * hostname are returned (except any hostnames configured with the @ symbol).
The @ symbol represents the null hostname in a zone. It permits the zonename to be substituted as a hostname. If a request is made to resolve just the zone, as if it were a host, the VIPs associated with the @ hostname are returned.
