Example: Configuring static domain name resolution

As shown in Figure 39, the host at 10.1.1.2 is named host.com. Configure static IPv4 DNS on the device so that the device can use the easy-to-remember domain name rather than the IP address to access the host.

	IMPORTANT: By default, interfaces on the device are disabled (in ADM or Administratively Down state). To have an interface operate, you must use the undo shutdown command to enable that interface

# Configure a mapping between host name host.com and IP address 10.1.1.2.

<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip host host.com 10.1.1.2

# Verify that the device can use static domain name resolution to resolve domain name host.com into IP address 10.1.1.2.

[Sysname] ping host.com
