NSLOOKUP Statement

The NSLOOKUP statement specifies that resolution of the client connection address should be done. Once resolved, the results are saved in global variables and traced if TRACE ALL or TRACE NSLOOKUP is on.

Operands

YES
Indicates that a DNS lookup should be performed against the client IP address. The resulting host name and IP address are saved in the GLOBALV variables HOSTNAME and HOSTADDR. If TRACE ALL or TRACE NSLOOKUP is active, the results are added to the trace output as well. If NSLOOKUP is not specified in the UFT configuration file, NSLOOKUP YES is assumed.
NO
Indicates that no DNS lookup of the client IP address should be performed.
EXIT exit_name
Indicates that a system administrator-provided exit exec should be called to determine what client IP address verification should be done. Based on the return code from the exec, the connection can be verified, not verified, or rejected. See DNS Lookup Exit for details on the interface to this exit. The exec name defaults to UFTNSLKX.
ON
Indicates the exit exec should be invoked for all client resolution activity. This is the default.
OFF
Indicates the exit function should be initialized, but not yet invoked, for client resolution. A NSLOOKUP EXIT ON subcommand is required to initiate exit processing of client resolution.
