LOOKUP
ip domain-lookup
Overview
This command enables the DNS client on your device. This allows you to use
domain names instead of IP addresses in commands. The DNS client resolves the
domain name into an IP address by sending a DNS inquiry to a DNS server,
specified with the
ip name-server
command.
The
no
variant of this command disables the DNS client. The client will not attempt
to resolve domain names. You must use IP addresses to specify hosts in
commands.
