Resolution of Host Names
Domain Name Service (DNS) maps host names to IP addresses. This feature simplifies such commands as

Dynamic resolution of host names is disabled by default. Unless the feature is enabled, the system resolves
only host names entered into the host table with the
ip host command.
• Enabling dynamic resolution of host names
• Specifying local system domain and a list of domains
