ip name-server

Use this command to add a DNS server address that is used to translate hostnames to IP addresses.

Use the no form of this command to remove a DNS server address.

If the hostname resolution takes time even after adding proper name-servers, check the list of name-servers added. Non-responsive name-servers take a long time to resolve the hostnames and result in utilities timeout and "Failed to resolve hostname" error. Ensure that the non-reachable/non-DNS name-servers are removed from the configured list.
