RiOS resolves host names through a DNS server immediately after you add a new host label or after you edit an existing host label. RiOS also automatically re-resolves host names once 24 hours.
How to change this default 24 hours to a user defined value?
There is no GUI interface to change this default value. We need to create a RiOS job that will resolve the host names and will run at user defined interval.
Please see the example below
Verify there is no preexisting job # 99 running below commands.
en
config t
show job 99
% Unknown job 99 <=== This means there is no preexisting job 99.
Create a Job #99 running below commands. (If there is a preexisting job #99, choose a different job #)
config t
job 99 name resolve_host_labels
job 99 comment "This Job resolves Host labels"
job 99 command 1 "resolve host-labels"
job 99 execute
job 99 recurring 3600 <<<< this value defines how often you want to resolve the host-labes in seconds. This example resolves the host-labes every 1hour>>>>
job 99 enable
Please verify that job is created correctly:
sh job 99
sample outpout:
supsv-sh4 (config) # show job 99
Job 10 (resolve_host_labels):

Failure Continue: no
