Specifying a secondary DNS IP address in Cast Iron

Troubleshooting


Problem

Is it possible to specify a secondary DNS IP address in the event the primary DNS IP is not available, and have Cast Iron automatically route to the secondary?

Resolving The Problem

To setup a secondary nameserver, you can supply the primary and secondary nameserver IP addresses and separate them with a space in the Cast Iron web management console or use net set nameserver <dns server1> <dns server2> followed by a net restart command issued through the Cast Iron command line.
