Details
This attribute is an array of DNS server addresses. The instrument can use up to three addresses.
Unused or disabled entries are returned as "0.0.0.0" when read. The dnsAddress returned is a
string specifying the IP address of the DNS server in dotted decimal notation.
You can only specify two addresses manually. However, the instrument uses up to three DNS server
addresses. If two are specified, only the one given by a DHCP server is used. If no entries are
specified, up to three address given by a DHCP server are used.
The value of lan.status.dns.address[1] is referenced first for all DNS lookups. The values of
lan.status.dns.address[2] and lan.status.dns.address[3] are referenced second and
third, respectively.
Example
print(lan.status.dns.address[1])
Outputs DNS server address 1, for example:
164.109.48.173

lan.status.dns.name (on page 11-267)
lan.status.dns.name
This attribute contains the present DNS fully qualified host name.
Usage
hostName = lan.status.dns.name
Fully qualified DNS host name that can be used to connect to the instrument
Details
A fully qualified domain name (FQDN), sometimes referred to as an absolute domain name, is a
domain name that specifies its exact location in the tree hierarchy of the Domain Name System
(DNS).
A FQDN is the complete domain name for a specific computer or host on the LAN. The FQDN
consists of two parts: the host name and the domain name.
If the DNS host name for an instrument is not found, this attribute stores the IP address in dotted
decimal notation.
Example
print(lan.status.dns.name)
Outputs the dynamic DNS host name.
