Hi everyone, I’ve been exploring the configuration settings in DSpace 7 and came across the *usage-statistics.resolver.timeout* setting in the* usage-statistics.cfg* file. I’m trying to understand its purpose, specifically in terms of DNS queries. Maybe someone has encountered the same setting and has figured out one of the following:
What exactly is dns resolving regarding the usage statistics used for? Does setting usage-statistics.resolver.timeout to 0 completely disable DNS queries, or is there maybe another way to disable them altogether? If I set it to 0 (or disable them), will it break any functionality related to usage statistics (like maybe bot detection etc) Has anyone experience with this configuration or encountered similar issues? The reason I want to disable these DNS queries is that I’ve been noticing DNS requests to blocked sites, which appear to be part of the DNS queries DSpace is making. This is a concern because these queries are being logged on our DNS RPZ server, but I think Dspace should not be able to try to resolve these queries in the first place. This kind of query traffic waters down the integrity of our DNS security logs, as it could obscure actual security threats that are trying to resolve.
