Configuration procedure
# Configure a mapping between host name host.com and IP address 10.1.1.2.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] ip host host.com 10.1.1.2
# Use the ping host.com command to verify that Router can use static domain name resolution to resolve
domain name host.com into IP address 10.1.1.2.
[Sysname] ping host.com

Dynamic domain name resolution configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 39, Router wants to access the host by using an easy-to-remember domain name
rather than an IP address, and to request the DNS server on the network for an IP address by using
dynamic domain name resolution. The IP address of the DNS server is 2.1.1.2/16 and the DNS server has
a com domain, which stores the mapping between domain name host and IP address 3.1.1.1/16.
Configure dynamic domain name resolution and the domain name suffix com on Router that serves as a
DNS client so that Router can use domain name host to access the host with the domain name host.com
and the IP address 3.1.1.1/16.

Configuration procedure
Before performing the following configuration, make sure Router and the host are accessible to each
other through available routes, and that the IP addresses of the interfaces are configured as shown Figure
39.
