Specifying the Local System Domain and a List of Domains

If you enter a partial domain, Dell EMC Networking OS can search different domains to finish or fully qualify that partial domain.

A fully qualified domain name (FQDN) is any name that is terminated with a period/dot. Dell EMC Networking OS searches the host table first to resolve the partial domain. The host table contains both statically configured and dynamically learnt host and IP addresses. If Dell EMC Networking OS cannot resolve the domain, it tries the domain name assigned to the local system. If that does not resolve the partial domain, Dell EMC Networking OS searches the list of domains configured.

To configure a domain name or a list of domain names, use the following commands.

  • Enter up to 63 characters to configure one domain name.
    CONFIGURATION mode
    ip domain-name name
  • Enter up to 63 characters to configure names to complete unqualified host names.
    CONFIGURATION mode
    ip domain-list name
    Configure this command up to six times to specify a list of possible domain names. Dell EMC Networking OS searches the domain names in the order they were configured until a match is found or the list is exhausted.
