B-2 APPENDIX B: CLI COMMAND DESCRIPTION
command, and set user to specify the protocol and other parameters related to
bridging.
add dns host
<host_name> address
<IP_address>
Adds the named host to the Local Host Table. When the system needs to resolve
an address for an IP host name, the Local Host table is checked first, before a
request is sent to the remote DNS Name Server.
The add login_host command may also add to this table. See that command’s
description for details.
add dns server
<domain_name>
■ primary_address [ip_address]
■ secondary_address [ip_address]
■ vc_name [vc_name]
Adds the IP Address of a remote DNS Server for the specified Domain Name to the
Domain Name Server Table. The first specified server is sent the IP Host Name to be
resolved, first without, and then with the default domain name (see set dns for
more information about the default domain name). If that server cannot resolve
the name, it is sent to the next specified server. If PPP is being used for a wide area
connection, the vc_name parameter to specify a remote connection from which
the primary and secondary addresses will be learned.
add filter
<filter_name>
Adds a filter file name to the filter table. The filter table is a managed list of filter
names used by SNMP. A filter file is a text file stored in the FLASH file system, that
you load using TFTP. Add filter also verifies the syntax of the filter file. If syntax
verification fails, you’ll receive an error message, and the filter will still be added to
the table, but is not usable. You must correct the filter file in a text editor, use TFTP
to export the updated file to the system’s FLASH file system, and use the verify
filter command to check the filter’s syntax.
