set ip dns domain Configures a default domain name for DNS queries. The wireless LAN

switch appends the default domain name to domain names or

hostnames you enter in commands.

Syntax —

set ip dns domain name

 name — Domain name of between 1 and 64 alphanumeric characters

with no spaces (for example, example.org).

Defaults — None.

Access — Enabled.

Usage — To override the default domain name when entering a

hostname in a CLI command, enter a period at the end of the hostname.

For example, if the default domain name is example.com, enter

chris. if

the fully qualified hostname is chris and not chris.example.com.

Aliases take precedence over DNS. When you enter a hostname, MSS checks

for an alias with that name first, before using DNS to resolve the name.

Examples — The following command configures the default domain

name example.com:

WX1200# set ip dns domain example.com
