+### DNS Policy
+
+By default, DNS policy for a pod is 'ClusterFirst'. So pods running with hostNetwork cannot resolve DNS names. To have DNS options set along with hostNetwork, you should specify DNS policy explicitly to 'ClusterFirstWithHostNet'. Update the busybox.yaml as following:
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Pod
+metadata:
+  name: busybox
+  namespace: default
+spec:
+  containers:
+  - image: busybox
+    command:
+      - sleep
+      - "3600"
+    imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
+    name: busybox
+  restartPolicy: Always
+  hostNetwork: true
+  dnsPolicy: ClusterFirstWithHostNet
+```
+
