Configuring DNS

Using the NX-API REST, you can enable DNS configuration that would be enabled by the following CLI commands:

ip domain-lookup <CR>
ip domain-name <default domain name> [use-vrf <vrf-name>] <CR>
ip domain-list [use-vrf <vrf-name>] <CR>
ip name-server [<IPv4|IPv6 address>] use-vrf <vrf-name> <CR>
ip host <name> <IPv4 address>
ipv6 host <IPv6 address>

For other CLI options, see the Cisco Nexus 9000 Series NX-OS Command Reference: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/switches/nexus-9000-series-switches/products-command-reference-list.html

CLI Commands

“ip domain-list”, “ip domain-name”, and “ip name-server” are supported under non-default (i.e. user specified) VRF mode as well as VRF “default” mode. The other commands mentioned in this document are supported under default VRF only and the value must be “default” for them when specifying dns:Prof.name.

“default” VRF
ip domain-name <name>
ip domain-list <name>
ip name-server <addr>

non-default VRF
vrf context <vrf>
ip domain-name <name>
ip domain-list <name>
ip name-server <addr>

Defines the default domain name that Cisco NX-OS uses to complete unqualified host names. You can optionally define a VRF that Cisco NX-OS uses to resolve this domain name if it cannot be resolved in the VRF that you configured this domain name under.

Cisco NX-OS appends the default domain name to any hostname that does not contain a complete domain name before starting a domain-name lookup.

Defines additional domain names that Cisco NX-OS can use to complete unqualified hostnames. You can optionally define a VRF that Cisco NX-OS uses to resolve these domain names if they cannot be resolved in the VRF that you configured this domain name under.

Cisco NX-OS uses each entry in the domain list to append that domain name to any hostname that does not contain a complete domain name before starting a domain-name lookup. Cisco NX-OS continues this process for each entry in the domain list until it finds a match.
