Get Filer dns info

JGPSHNTAP — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 05:35:20 GMT

Guys,

Unless i'm totally missing it or brainfreeze, is there not an API for DNS info for the powershell toolkit.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't see any. As an alternative, you could read the resolv.conf file with Read-NaFile.
