Static domain name resolution configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in Figure 40, the host at 1::2 is named host.com. Configure static IPv6 DNS on the device so that the device can use the easy-to-remember domain name rather than the IPv6 address to access the host.

Configuration procedure

# Configure a mapping between the host name host.com and the IPv6 address 1::2.

<Device> system-view
[Device] ipv6 host host.com 1::2

# Verify that the device can use static domain name resolution to resolve the domain name host.com into the IPv6 address 1::2.

[Sysname] ping ipv6 host.com
