Example 3: Deployment Site Has DNS But No
DHCP

The deployment site in this example does not

have a DHCP server but does have a local DNS server.
The configuration is similar to Example 1, but includes
DNS configuration information instead of an IP alias.

Configure a VLAN:

WX1200# set vlan 1 port 7

Configure an IP interface on the VLAN.

WX1200# set interface 1 ip 192.168.1.252
255.255.255.0

Configure a default route through the local default
router:

WX1200# set ip route default 192.168.1.1 0

Configure the default DNS domain name:

WX1200# set ip dns domain example.com

Configure DNS server information:

WX1200# set ip dns server 192.168.11.2

Enable the MSS DNS client:

WX1200# set ip dns server enable

Enable the auto-config option:

WX1200# set auto-config enable

Save the configuration changes:

WX1200# save config

Power off or restart the switch.

Example 4: Deployment Site Has DHCP But Local
DNS Domain Differs From Corporate DNS
Domain

The deployment site in this example has a

DHCP server, so the switch’s DHCP client is enabled.
Static IP address and default router information are
not required. The site also has a local DNS server.
However, the local DNS domain name is different
from the corporate DNS domain name where 3WXM
Services are located. The static DNS configuration on
the switch overrides the DNS configuration from the
DHCP server.
