to IP address mapping for that VRF.

Usage
Information
The name-to-IP address table uses this mapping information to resolve host names. The no version of
this command disables the mapping.
Example
OS10(config)# ip host dell 1.1.1.1
Supported
Releases
10.2.0E or later
ip name-server
Configures up to a three IPv4 or IPv6 addresses used for network name servers.
Syntax
ip name-server ipaddress [ip-address2 ip-address3]
Parameters
ipaddress Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of a domain name server to use for completing
unqualified names (incomplete domain names that cannot be resolved).
ipaddress2 ip-address3 (Optional) Enter up two additional IPv4 or IPv6 name servers,
separated with a space.
Default Not configured
Command Mode CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
OS10 does not support sending DNS queries over a VLAN. DNS queries are sent out on all other
interfaces, including the Management port. You can separately configure both IPv4 and IPv6 domain
name servers. In a dual stack setup, the system sends both A (request for IPv4) and AAAA (request for
IPv6) record requests to a DNS server even if you only configure this command. The no version of this
command removes the IP name-server configuration.
Example
OS10(config)# ip name-server 10.1.1.5
Supported
Releases
10.2.0E or later
