irule for logging DNS queries to the load balancer?

Hi James,

 

 

The GTM / 3-DNS / Zonerunner is just a modified version of BIND. I'm running 10.2.x on my GTM and you can verify by running "named -v"

 

 

named -v

 

BIND 9.6.1-P3

 

 

So rather than adding an iRule to log all of the entries that are queried, you could modify your named.conf (/var/named/config/named.conf) to add logging.

 

 

Something like this:

 

 

logging {

 

channel logfile {

 

syslog daemon;

 

severity error;

 

print-category yes;

 

print-severity yes;

 

print-time yes;

 

};

 

channel query_log {

 

file "/var/log/query.log" versions 7 size 250m ;

 

severity dynamic;

 

print-time yes;

 

print-category yes;

 

print-severity yes;

 

};

 

 

NOTE: I would highly recommend bouncing this concept off of F5 Support, but this should work.

 

 

Hope this helps.
