GTM - DNS Forwarder

Is it possible to configured the GMT to be a DNS forwarder? Can't find an options for it anywhere but it would be quite useful for something i'm trying to configure.

Hi Luca,

It is kind of hidden, but if you go into "ZoneRunner" > "Named Configuration" there should be a section in there for "forwarders." Add your forwarders there. You can either enable recursion globally or only for a few subnets. Here are a few examples:

Global

recursion yes;
forwarders {
    8.8.8.8;
};
For local subnets

recursion yes;
allow-recursion {
    192.168.1.0/24;
    10.0.0.0/24;
};
forwarders {
    8.8.8.8;
};

    Hi, we are running 11.5.1 HF10, but don`t see any forwarder under the "named configuration" section.
