If you use the WMIC IP address as its hostname, the IP address is used and no DNS query occurs. If you
configure a hostname that contains no periods (.), a period followed by the default domain name is
appended to the hostname before the DNS query is made to map the name to an IP address.
The default domain name is the value set by the ip domain-name global configuration command. If
there is a period (.) in the hostname, the Cisco IOS software looks up the IP address without appending
any default domain name to the hostname.
To remove a domain name, use the no ip domain-name name command in global configuration mode.
To remove a name server address, use the no ip name-server server-address command in global
configuration mode. To disable DNS on the WMIC, use the no ip domain-lookup command in global
configuration mode.
Displaying the DNS Configuration
To display the DNS configuration information, use the show running-config command in privileged
EXEC command.
Creating a Banner
You can configure a message-of-the-day (MOTD) and a login banner. The MOTD banner appears on all
connected terminals at login and is useful for sending messages that affect all network users (such as
impending system shutdowns).
The login banner also appears on all connected terminals. It appears after the MOTD banner and before
the login prompts.

Note
Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference for Release 12.2.
Purpose
Specifies the address of one or more name servers to use for name and address
resolution.
You can specify up to six name servers. Separate each server address with a
space. The first server specified is the primary server. The WMIC sends DNS
queries to the primary server first. If that query fails, the backup servers are
queried.
(Optional) Enables DNS-based hostname-to-address translation on your
WMIC. This feature is enabled by default.
If your network devices require connectivity with devices in networks for which
you do not control name assignment, you can dynamically assign device names
that uniquely identify your devices by using the global Internet naming scheme
(DNS).
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Verifies your entries.
(Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
