Configure DNS Parameters

To specify the primary DNS server, at the config:# prompt, type network dns firstServer <ip address>, and press Enter.
To specify the secondary DNS server, at the config:# prompt, type network dns secondServer <ip address>, and press Enter.
To specify the third DNS server, at the config:# prompt, type network dns thirdServer <ip address>, and press Enter.
To specify one or multiple optional DNS search suffixes, at the config:# prompt, type network dns searchSuffixes <suffix1> or network dns searchSuffixes <suffix1>,<suffix2>,<suffix3>,...,<suffix6>, and press Enter.
To determine which IP address is used when the DNS server returns both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, at the config:# prompt, type network dns resolverPreference <resolver>, and press Enter.
<ip address> is the IP address of the DNS server.

<suffix1>, <suffix2>, and so on are the DNS suffixes that automatically apply when searching for any device through the HPDU. For example, <suffix1> can be company.com and <suffix2> can be parent.com. You can specify up to 6 suffixes by separating them with commas.

<resolver> is one of the options:

preferV4 - Use the IPv4 addresses returned by the DNS server.

preferV6 - Use the IPv6 addresses returned by the DNS server.
