DNS

DNS Client

The DNS client resolves and caches the DNS domain name to IP address mapping.

It communicates with the DNS server addresses configured statically or obtained via DHCP within the wlan0 or eth0 interface.

You can configure the Primary DNS and Secondary DNS to define the DNS servers that will be used when performing a domain name lookup.

In Web Manager, go to Network > eth0 or wlan0 > Interface > Configuration.

For the CLI, go to Config Interface level.

For XML, go to configgroup interface.

DNS Server

The DNS performs a redirect when the WLAN client connected to the SoftAP interface issues a DNS request. DNS resolves the request to the SoftAP IP address.
