dns forwarder
Adds a new DNS forwarding name server. Optionally sets, moves, or removes an integer index position for each name server.
Syntax
dns forwarder {add <ip-address> [idx <index>] | move <index> to <index> | remove <index>}
Parameters
add <ip-address>
Specifies the IP address of the forwarder. A forwarder is a DNS server to which the SteelHead caching-name server will forward requests. Forwarder is added to the end of the index of forwarders by default.
idx <index>
Specifies the order in which the SteelHead contacts forwarder by assigning the forwarder a numeric position in the forwarder index. The SteelHead first sends a request to the forwarder with index 0, next to the forwarder with index 1, and so on, to an upper index limit of 2147483647.
move <index> to <index>
Specifies the index number of the forwarder. Moves a forwarder from one index position to another.
remove <index>
Removes a forwarder from the index or an index list separated by commas.
Usage
You can also access this command from enable mode.
