Usage Guidelines
NOTE
The BlackDiamond 8800 series switch (formerly known as Aspen) and the Summit X450 family of switches do not
support user-created VRs.
The domain suffix list can include up to six items. If the use of all previous names fails to resolve a
name, the most recently added entry on the domain suffix list will be the last name used during name
resolution. This command will not overwrite any exiting entries. If a null string is used as the last suffix
in the list, and all other lookups fail, the name resolver will attempt to look up the name with no suffix.
Up to eight DNS name servers can be configured. The default value for the virtual router used by the
DNS client option is VR-Default.
