Search List

The search list can contain one static entry defined by the user in the DNS Settings and dynamic entries received from DHCPv4 and DHCPv6 servers.

To view the domain names that have been configured on the device, click IP Configuration > DNS > Search List.

The following fields are displayed for each DNS server configured on the device.

  • Source—Source of the server’s IP address (static or DHCPv4 or DHCPv6) for this domain.

  • Preference—This is the order in which the domains are used (from low to high). This effectively determines the order in which unqualified names are completed during DNS queries.
