host can access the Internet directly using domain names. For a PPP link established between a device
and the access server of a carrier, the DNS server address is usually allocated by the access server so
that the device can resolve domain names by using the allocated address.
Configure DNS server settings depending on the role of your device in PPP negotiation.
1. Configuring the local end as the client
To configure settings for DNS server address negotiation when the device is functioning as the client in
PPP negotiation:

request the peer for a DNS
server address.
ppp ipcp dns request
By default, a device does not request its peer
for a DNS server address.
249. Enable the local end to
accept the DNS server
address assigned by the peer.
ppp ipcp dns admit-any
Optional.
By default, a device does not accept the
DNS server address assigned by the peer.
NOTE:
The server will specify a DNS server address for a client in PPP negotiation only after the client is
configured with the ppp ipcp dns request command. For some special devices to forcibly specify DNS
server addresses for clients that dot not initiate requests, you must configure the ppp ipcp dns admit-any
command on these devices.
