Parameters
primary-dns-address: Primary DNS server IP address to be set.
secondary-dns-address: Secondary DNS server IP address to be set.
Usage guidelines
When connected through PPP, a device can assign DNS server IP addresses to its peer during PPP
negotiation (if the peer requests) for the peer to access the network by domain names.
If a host is connected to the device through PPP, you can execute the winipcfg command or the ipconfig
/all command on the host to check the DNS server IP addresses assigned by the device.
A device can provide a primary DNS server IP address and a secondary DNS server IP address to its
peer.
Examples
# Set the primary DNS server IP address to 100.1.1.1 and the secondary DNS server IP address to
10 0 .1.1. 2 o n i n t e r f a c e V i r t u a l -Te m p l a t e 1.

the peer even though it does not request the peer for the DNS server IP addresses.
Use undo ppp ipcp dns admit-any to configure the device to deny the DNS server IP addresses assigned
by the peer if it does not request the peer for the DNS server IP addresses.
