Zonerunner : creating an internal DNS view and need to limit source networks

Hi All,

 

I have two DNS zones: one existing for external use and I need to create another named the same for internal use only.

 

  1. When creating a new internal view via ZoneRunner, how do I populate the Options field when the new 'internal' view is only to be used by specific networks (eg. 1.1.0./24 and 2.2.0.0/24 etc).

     

  2. Should this new 'internal' view be placed higher in the view order above the existing 'external' view since the external view has a 'match-clients any' statement?

     

Thanks for your assistance.

  • Hi Curious,

    In fact, you have 2 views internal and external. As you said when you create a view, you have the avaibility to set:

    match-clients {
        "zrd-acl-000-000";
        any;
    };
    

    it will determine how have the right to request this zone.

    The important point is the view order, in your case you have to set-

    • First internal view (set view order to First)
    • Then external view (set external view to Last or after)

    View order acting as a firewall rules first match if condition match...

    Hope it's clear. let me now if you need addtional info
