Configuring static domain name resolution
Configuring static domain name resolution refers to specifying the mappings between host names and IPv6 addresses. Static domain name resolution allows applications such as Telnet to contact hosts by using host names instead of IPv6 addresses.
Follow these guidelines when you configure static domain name resolution:
A host name can be mapped to one IPv6 address only. If you map a host name to different IPv6 addresses, the last configuration takes effect.
You can configure up to 50 mappings between domain name and IPv6 address on the switch.
To configure static domain name resolution:
Step | Command | Remarks |
---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Configure a mapping between a host name and an IPv6 address. | ipv6 host hostname ipv6-address | Not configured by default |
