Configure a DNS
Server Profile, which simplifies configuration of a virtual
system. The Primary DNS or Secondary
DNS address is used to create the DNS request that the
virtual system sends to the DNS server.
Name the DNS server profile, select the virtual
system to which it applies, and specify the primary and secondary
DNS server addresses.
Select DeviceServer ProfilesDNS and Add a Name for
the DNS server profile.
For Location, select the virtual
system to which the profile applies.
For Inheritance Source, select None if
the DNS server addresses are not inherited. Otherwise, specify the
DNS server from which the profile should inherit settings. If you
choose a DNS server, click Check inheritance source status to
see that information.
Specify the IP address of the Primary DNS server,
or leave as inherited if you chose an Inheritance
Source.
Keep in mind that if you specify an FQDN instead
of an IP address, the DNS for that FQDN is resolved in DeviceVirtual SystemsDNS Proxy.
Specify the IP address of the Secondary
DNS server, or leave as inherited if
you chose an Inheritance Source.
Configure the service route that the firewall automatically
uses, based on whether the target DNS Server has an IP address family
type of IPv4 or IPv6.
Click Service Route IPv4 to
enable the subsequent interface and IPv4 address to be used as the
service route, if the target DNS address is an IPv4 address.
Specify the Source Interface to
select the DNS server’s source IP address that the service route
will use. The firewall determines which virtual router is assigned
that interface, and then does a route lookup in the virtual router
routing table to reach the destination network (based on the Primary
DNS address).
Specify the IPv4 Source Address from
which packets going to the DNS server are sourced.
Click Service Route IPv6 to
enable the subsequent interface and IPv6 address to be used as the
service route, if the target DNS address is an IPv6 address.
Specify the Source Interface to
select the DNS server’s source IP address that the service route
will use. The firewall determines which virtual router is assigned
that interface, and then does a route lookup in the virtual router
routing table to reach the destination network (based on the Primary
DNS address).
Specify the IPv6 Source Address from
which packets going to the DNS server are sourced.
