Aliases take precedence over DNS. When you enter a hostname, MSS checks 
for an alias with that name first, before using DNS to resolve the name.
Examples — The following command configures the default domain 
name example.com:
WX1200# set ip dns domain example.com
Domain name changed

set ip dns server
Specifies a DNS server to use for resolving hostnames you enter in CLI 
commands.
Syntax — 
set ip dns server ip-addr {primary | secondary}
„
ip-addr
 — IP address of a DNS server, in dotted decimal or CIDR 
notation.
„
primary
 — Makes the server the primary server, which MSS always 
consults first for resolving DNS queries.
„
secondary
 — Makes the server a secondary server. MSS consults a 
secondary server only if the primary server does not reply.
Defaults — None.
Access — Enabled.
Usage — You can configure a WX to use one primary DNS server and up 
to five secondary DNS servers. 
Examples — The following commands configure a WX to use a primary 
DNS server and two secondary DNS servers:
WX1200# set ip dns server 10.10.10.50/24 primary
success: change accepted.
WX1200# set ip dns server 10.10.20.69/24 secondary
