Domain Name Suffix

The Domain Name Suffix object is a child of the Name Server Group object. It allows you to specify a Domain Name Suffix for the purpose of Domain Name Lookup (DNL).

You can specify more than one Domain Name Suffix in a Name Server Group; in this case, the NE attempts the lookup using each suffix in turn, in the order in which the Domain Name Suffix objects were created, until it finds a match.

If you require DNL support for absolute domain names without dots in them, you should specify a Domain Name Suffix with a blank Suffix field.
