Are there DNS dependencies for Remote Copy Protocol (RCP) to work properly for a device?

A. Yes. If there are multiple IP addresses configured on the device, all IP addresses on the device must be configured in the Domain Name System (DNS). Examples of devices with multiple IP addresses are those having many interfaces, with each interface configured with its own IP address, or a device that interfaces configured with primary and secondary IP addresses. Configure the DNS so that all IP addresses are resolved to the same host name. The host name in the DNS should match the host name entered in the Device and Credential Repository.
