If the DNS system is set up to return lists of host addresses in response to a
query, the List Attempt parameter enables a user to attempt a login to one
entry in the DNS list of hosts, and if that connection fails, to try the next
entry, and so on. This helps to avoid tearing down physical links when a host
is unavailable, which is especially important for immediate services such as
immediate Telnet or Rlogin.
The List Size parameter specifies a number of addresses that will be listed.
The maximum number is 35. Also see “User-definable TCP connection retry
timeout” on page 3-21 to use the TCP Timeout parameter to attempt
subsequent DNS servers, as needed.
