DNS pool entry names can now be used to provide a series of server addresses in connection strings specification. This improvement allows a series of predefined IP addresses to be added to your DNS translation tables which do not require consecutive IP addresses like when specifying an IP address range.
For example if you can create the DNS pool entry "exaservers" that contains the following entries:
10.48.106.80, 10.48.106.84, 10.48.106.99
This domain name can be used in the connection string for all drivers as the only host, or in combination with others according to the syntax from the manual.
This is an ODBC example:
EXAHost=exaservers:8563
