dns Question

I have gotten reports that my Hypervisor for the F5 LTMs, management interface is talking to google dns 8.8.8.8. I have tried a few different TCP dumps and don't see where my managment interface is talking to 8.8.8.8. Is there some where in the config I can look?

 

this is on of the TCP dumps i ran

 

tcpdump -ni 0.0:nnn -s 0 host '8.8.8.8'

 

application delivery
LTM
management

    The 0.0 interface is only for tmm traffic. For the management interface, use eth0.

    tcpdump -lnni eth0 host 8.8.8.8

    /etc/resolv.conf should map directly to the DNS GUI settings at System - Configuration - Device - DNS. Was there any mention of what it was trying to query?

    Hi Brandon,

     

    If you can also ask the person(s) who reported it to you of exactly that they saw in their logs that identified the F5 as the culprit.
