Quick Reference Guide

cfgDNSDomainNameFromDHCP (Read/Write)
Description Specifies that iDRAC or CMC DNS domain name should be
assigned from the network DHCP server.
Legal Values
• 1 (TRUE)
• 0 (FALSE)
Default 0
For CMC, this property is used only if cfgNicUseDhcp is set to 1 (true), or if both cfgIPv6Enable and cfgIPv6AutoConfig
are set to 1 (true).
The CMC can obtain its DNS domain name from either a DHCP or DHCPv6 server, if all of the following properties are set
to 1 (true):
• cfgNicIPv4Enable
• cfgNicUseDhcp
• cfgIPv6Enable
• cfgIPv6AutoConfig
• cfgDNSDomainNameFromDHCP
• cfgDNSDomainName (Read/Write)
The network administrator must make sure that these DHCP servers are configured to provide the same DNS domain
name to the CMC, otherwise the domain name becomes unpredictable.

if cfgDNSDomainNameFromDHCP
is set to 0 (FALSE).
