opendns

Configures the per-fetched OpenDNS device_id. Once configured, all DNS queries originating from wireless clients associating with the WLAN are appended with an additional 31 bytes of data (representing the device ID) at the end of the DNS packet. The device ID is a sixteen (16) character hex string representing a 64 bit unsigned integer and is fetched from the OpenDNS site.

This command is part of a series of configurations that are required to integrate WiNG access points, wireless controllers, and service platforms with OpenDNS. When all the parameters have been configured, DNS queries from wireless clients, associating with the WLAN, are redirected to OpenDNS (208.67.220.220 OR 208.67.222.222). These OpenDNS resolvers act as proxy DNS servers that provide additional functionalities, such as Web filtering, reporting, and performance enhancement. For more information on the entire configuration, see opendns.

Parameters

opendns device-id <DEVICE-ID>


opendns device-id <DEVICE-ID>	Configures the device ID to embed in DNS queries sent to OpenDNS <DEVICE-ID> – Specify the device ID.

Examples

The following command fetches the device_id from the OpenDNS site.
