Dns Configuration Task List; Configuring The Ipv4 Dns Client; Configuring Static Domain Name Resolution - HP FlexNetwork MSR2003 Configuration Manual

Dynamically obtains the DNS server address through DHCP or another autoconfiguration
mechanism.
5. Because the DNS entry ages out immediately upon creation, the host sends another DNS
request to the device to resolve the HTTP server domain name.
6. The device operates the same as a DNS proxy. For more information, see
7. After obtaining the IP address of the HTTP server, the host can access the HTTP server.
Without DNS spoofing, the device forwards the DNS requests from the host to the DNS server if it
cannot find a matching local DNS entry. However, the device cannot obtain the DNS server address,
because no dial-up connection is established. Therefore, the device cannot forward or answer the
requests from the client. DNS resolution fails, and the client cannot access the HTTP server.

Configuring static domain name resolution

Static domain name resolution allows applications such as Telnet to contact hosts by using host
names instead of IPv4 addresses.
Follow these guidelines when you configure static domain name resolution:
•
On the public network or a VPN, each host name maps to only one IPv4 address. The most
recent configuration for a host name takes effect.
•
You can configure the following:
IPv4 DNS entries for the public network and up to 1024 VPNs.
A maximum of 1024 IPv4 DNS entries for the public network or each VPN.
To configure static domain name resolution:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure a mapping between a
host name and an IPv4 address.
Command
system-view
ip host host-name
ip-address [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
98
"DNS proxy."
Remarks
N/A
By default, no mapping between a
host name and an IPv4 address is
configured.
