Usage Examples
The following SLAX example initializes the variable address with the IP address 198.51.100.1. The $address variable is passed as the argument to the jcs:hostname() function. If the DNS server is configured
on the device, the function will resolve the IP address and return
the fully qualified domain name, which is stored in the variable host.
var $address = "198.51.100.1"; var $host = jcs:hostname($address);
In XSLT:
<xsl:variable name="address" select="198.51.100.1"> <xsl:variable name="host" select="jcs:hostname($address)"/>
In Python:
host = jcs.hostname("198.51.100.1")Release Information
