Description: DNS Server is Dhcp option 6. Default = '' = Null String. The format of the string can be up to 8 IP addresses in the list, for exapmle: '121.23.1.12 135.64.13.190 192.123.242.230'
What is cigDhcpClientsDnsServerList?
This reports the DNS server address or addresses this interface received from the DHCP server via option 6, up to eight addresses per the description, which the device would use for its own outbound name resolution needs, such as resolving a hostname-configured TACACS+ server address elsewhere on this same device. An admin troubleshooting a name-resolution failure elsewhere in the device's configuration should check this list to confirm valid DNS servers were actually received via DHCP rather than assuming the resolver itself is broken. For example, an empty string here on a device relying on DHCP-provided DNS would explain why every hostname-based configuration item elsewhere on the device fails to resolve.
