Command History
Usage Guidelines The storage router requires access to a DNS if any IP addresses are entered as host names via any of the
storage router management interfaces, or if the management interface IP address is to be correlated with
a DNS host name. To use the services of a DNS, you must also assign a domain name to the storage router
via the ip domain-name command.
If the DNS is outside the storage router management subnet, use the ip route command to add an
appropriate gateway IP address to the routing table.
Examples The following example assigns the domain name abc123z.com to the storage router, and assigns the IP
address of the primary DNS to 10.1.40.243 and the secondary DNS to 10.1.50.249:
[SN5428-2A]# ip domain-name abc123z.com
[SN5428-2A]# ip name-server 10.1.40.243 10.1.50.249
Related Commands
