Embodiment 1

[0035] This embodiment provides a method for setting the DNS server address, which is used to set the DNS server address for the host running the Mac OS X operating system. The Internet terminal device has established an IPv6 connection with the host and the host has set an IP address. The method is as follows: figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0036] Step 1, receiving the query command sent by the host, and returning the DNS server address to the host according to the query command;

[0037] Step 2, make the host call the API of the Mac OS X operating system, and set the DNS server address for the host.

[0038] In the above step 1, returning the DNS server address to the host according to the query command is: obtaining the DNS server address from the Internet access terminal device through a USB command or an HTTP command. Which query command to use specifically can be determined according to the type of the Internet access terminal device. If the Internet a...

Embodiment 2

[0044]The present embodiment provides a device for setting the DNS server address, which is used to set the DNS server address for the host running the Mac OS X operating system, and the device can be used as an Internet terminal device that provides a network connection to the running Mac OS X operating system host, For example, it can be a wireless network card or a router, a modem, etc.), such as figure 2 As shown, the device includes: a connection unit 21, a receiving unit 22 and a main control unit 23;

[0045] Wherein, the connection unit 21 is used to establish an IPv6 connection with the host running the Mac OS X operating system;

[0046] The receiving unit 22 is connected to the connection unit 21, and is used to receive the ICMPv6 command sent by the host, and transmit it to the main control unit; and is used to receive the query command sent by the host, and transmit it to the main control unit;

[0047] The main control unit 23 is connected with the receiving un...

Embodiment 3

[0049] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for setting the DNS server address, which is used to set the DNS server address for the host running the Mac OS X operating system. The host has established an IPv6 connection with the Internet terminal device and the host has set an IP address. The method Such as image 3 shown, including the following steps:

[0050] Step 31, obtaining the DNS server address from the Internet access terminal device through a query command;

[0051] Step 32, call the API of the Mac OS X operating system, and set the acquired DNS server address for the host.

[0052] In the above step 31, obtaining the DNS server address from the Internet access terminal device through a query command is: obtaining the DNS server address from the Internet access terminal device through a USB command or an HTTP command. Which query command to use specifically can be determined according to the type of the Internet access terminal device. If the ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method, device and system for setting a DNS (Domain Name System) server address, and belongs to the field of computer application. The method is used for setting the DNS server address for a host which runs an operating system Mac OS X, wherein the host has established IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) connection and is provided with an IP address. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a query command transmitted by the host, returning the DNS server address to the host according to the query command so as to enable the host to call an API (Application Program Interface) of the operating system Mac OS X, and setting the DNS server address for the host. According to the method, the device and the system, the automatic configuration of the DNS server address for the host running the operating system Mac OS X can be realized, and the manual operation of users is not required, so that the convenience and configuration efficiency in use are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computing applications, in particular to a method, device and system for setting DNS server addresses on a Mac OS X operating system. Background technique [0002] The existing Internet runs on the basis of the IPv4 protocol. IPv6 (Internet Protocol Version 6, Internet Protocol Version 6) is the next version of the Internet protocol. It was originally proposed because with the rapid development of the Internet, the limited address space defined by IPv4 will be exhausted, and the lack of address space will inevitably Affect the further development of the Internet. IPv6 has the advantages of expanding the address space, improving the overall throughput of the network, improving the quality of service (QoS), better guaranteeing security, supporting plug-and-play and mobility, and better realizing multicast functions. The function of DNS (Domain Name System Domain Name System) server is to bind the domain name and IP...
