Two hidden masters - sending notifications to public slaves.

2014-07-07 Thread Maren S. Leizaola
Hello, We are setting up to do zone generations of two separate hidden masters which will take turns on the zone generation. Public/visible DNS servers should get notifies from both servers and select the one with the with the highest serial number. I am planning to run bind on one server

Hello, What do you guys recommend to audit every resource record in a zone file against all the records in all the DNS servers that host the zone file. I want something that I feed the master zone file and then goes to each NS server and ensures that each of the records

DNS Racing -Multi ISP load balancing with failover using DNS.

2011-05-29 Thread Maren S. Leizaola
DNS-Racing is a method of load balancing access to servers which are multi homed and provides lowest latency access to users and network resilience to ISP/routing failure. * **What does it do?* It permits a server which is connected to two ISPs to use the optimal ISP when transferring data
