CLI Guide

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.

characters must be alphabetic. Characters are restricted to
alphanumeric, '-', and '.'.
