Cisco DNS

To determine most DNS settings we can simply run:

R1# show hosts

The output will tell us the default domain name, the DNS IP addresses to use and the local host-to-IP mappings.

To enable DNS resolution and configure the DNS servers to use:

R1(config)# ip domain-lookup
R1(config)# ip name-server 1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8

To enable the DNS service for other clients to use:

R1# ip dns server

To configure static host-to-IP mappings:

R1(config)# ip host router1 1.1.1.1
R1(config)# ip host router2 2.2.2.2
