Hi We are using F5 DNS as DNS server and have many CNAME record. We want to query those CNAME record and then get IP as a result too. (Which solved by Enable "recursion yes; in named configuration) But we found problem that our F5 DNS perform recursion on EVERY domain client asking. (eg. f5.com, nginx.com., etc.) We want F5 DNS to answer query on only domain we handle (many domain in zonerunner and gslb) How can we do that? Is it possible to do that? because "recursion yes;" is config on named configuration. I think it's global configuration. and "allow-recursion {}" is only check for client IP address (it's not check on domain we handle) Thank you37Views0likes3CommentsUse Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) for GSLB Pool Member with F5 DNS
Normally, we define a specific IP (and port) to be used as GSLB pool member. This article provides a custom configuration to be able to use Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) as GSLB pool member--with all GSLB features like health-check monitoring, load balancing method, persistence, etc. Despite GSLB as a mechanism to distribute traffic across datacenters having reached years of age, it has not become less relevant this recent years. The fact that internet infrastructure still rely heavily on DNS technology means GSLB is continuously used due to is lightweight nature and smooth integration. When using F5 DNS as GSLB solution, usually we are dealing with LTM and its VS as GSLB server and pool member respectively. Sometimes, we will add a non-LTM node as a generic server to provide inter-DC load balancing capability. Either way, we will end up with a pair of IP and port to represent the application, in which we sent a health-check against. Due to the trend of public cloud and CDN, there is a need to use FQDN as GSLB pool member (instead of IP and port pair). Some of us may immediately think of using a CNAME-type GSLB pool to accommodate this. However, there is a limitation in which BIG-IP requires a CNAME-type GSLB pool to use a wideIP-type pool member, in which we will end up with an IP and port pair (again!) We can use "static target", but there is "side-effect" where the pool member will always consider available (which then triggers the question why we need to use GSLB in the first place!). Additionally, F5 BIG-IP TMUI accepts FQDN input when we configure GSLB server and pool member. However, it will immediately translate to IP based on configured DNS. Thus, this is not the solution we are looking for Now this is where F5’s BIG-IP power (a.k.a programmability) comes into play. Enter the realm of customization... We all love customization, but at the same time do not want that to be overly complicated so that life becomes harder on day-2 🙃. Thus, the key is to use some customization, but simple enough to avoid unnecessary complication. Here is one idea to solve our FQDN as GSLB pool problem above The customized configuration object includes 1. External health-check monitor: Dynamically resolve DNS to translate FQDN into IP address Perform health-check monitoring against current IP address Result is used to determine GSLB pool member availability status 2. DNS iRules: Check #1: Checks if GSLB pool attached to wideIP contains only FQDN-type member (e.g. other pool referring to LTM VS is also attached to the wideIP) If false, do nothing (let DNS response refer to LTM VS) Otherwise, perform check #2 Check #2: Checks current health-check status of requested domain name If FQDN is up, modify DNS response to return current IP of FQDN Otherwise, perform fallback action as requirement (e.g. return empty response, return static IP, use fallback pool, etc.) 3. Internal Datagroup: Store current IP of FQDN, updated according to health-check interval Datagroup record value contains current IP if health-check success. Otherwise, the value contains empty data Here are some of the codes, where configured; wideIP is gslb.test.com, while GSLB pool member FQDN is arcadia.f5poc.id 1. External health-check monitor config gtm monitor external gslb_external_monitor { defaults-from external destination *:* interval 10 probe-timeout 5 run /Common/gslb_external_monitor_script timeout 120 #define FQDN here user-defined fqdn arcadia.f5poc.id } External health-check monitor script #!/bin/sh pidfile="/var/run/$MONITOR_NAME.$1..$2.pid" if [ -f $pidfile ] then kill -9 -`cat $pidfile` > /dev/null 2>&1 fi echo "$$" > $pidfile # Obtain current IP for the FQDN resolv=`dig +short ${fqdn}` # The actual monitoring action here curl -fIs -k https://${fqdn}/ --resolve ${fqdn}:443:${resolv} | grep -i HTTP 2>&1 > /dev/null status=$? if [ $status -eq 0 ] then # Actions when health-check success rm -f $pidfile tmsh modify ltm data-group internal fqdn { records replace-all-with { $fqdn { data $resolv } } } echo "sending monitor to ${fqdn} ${resolv} with result OK" | logger -p local0.info echo "up" else # Actions when health-check fails tmsh modify ltm data-group internal fqdn { records replace-all-with { $fqdn { } } } echo "sending monitor to ${fqdn} ${resolv} with result NOK" | logger -p local0.info fi rm -f $pidfile 2. DNS iRules when DNS_REQUEST { set qname [DNS::question name] # Obtain current IP for the FQDN set currentip [class match -value $qname equals fqdn] } when DNS_RESPONSE { set rname [getfield [lindex [split [DNS::answer]] 4] "\}" 1 ] #Check if return is IP address of specially encoded FQDN IP, 10.10.10.10 in this example if {$rname eq "10.10.10.10" }{ #Response is only from pool with external monitor, meaning no other pool is attached to wideIP if {$currentip ne ""}{ #Current FQDN health-check success DNS::answer clear # Use current IP to construct DNS answer section DNS::answer insert "[DNS::question name]. 123 [DNS::question class] [DNS::question type] $currentip" } else { #Current FQDN health-check failed #Define action to be performed here DNS::answer clear } } } 3. Internal Datagroup ltm data-group internal fqdn { records { # Define FQDN as record name arcadia.f5poc.id { # Record data contains IP, where this will be continuously updated by external monitoring script data 158.140.176.219 } } type string } *GSLB virtual server configuration Some testing The resolve will follow whichever current IP address for the FQDN. If a returning CNAME response is required, you can do so by modifying DNS irules above. The logic and code are open to any improvement, so leave your suggestions in the comments if you have any. Thanks!255Views1like0CommentsDNS LTM adding recommendation
Hello, What is the recommendation in adding GTM and LTM/AWAF devices in multi datacenter More explanation if we have HQ and DR datacenters HQ data center GTM device (One device) LTM/AWAF Device (Pair) DR data center GTM device (One device) LTM/AWAF Device (Pair) shall we add DR LTM/AWAF to HQ GTM by using DR LTM/AWAF self IP reachable through internet or internally? Please highlight pros and cons for each method Why are we think to add DR LTM/AWAF to HQ GTM is to ensure that HQ GTM will see VS on DR LTM/AWAF down when internet link is down in DR If there another way to ensure that by monitoring links please clarify26Views0likes3CommentsUsing Distributed Cloud DNS Load Balancer with Geo-Proximity and failover scenarios
Introduction To have both high performance and responsive apps available on the Internet, you need a cloud DNS that’s both scalable and one that operates at a global level to effectively connect users to the nearest point of presence. The F5 Distributed Cloud DNS Load Balancer positions the best features used with GSLB DNS to enable the delivery of hybrid and multi-cloud applications with compute positioned right at the edge, closest to users. With Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB) features available in a cloud-based SaaS format, the Distributed Cloud DNS Load Balancer has a number distinct advantages: Speed and simplicity: Integrate with DevOps pipelines, with an automation focus and a rich and intuitive user interface Flexibility and scale: Global auto-scale keeps up with demand as the number of apps increases and traffic patterns change Security: Built-in DDoS protection, automatic failover, and DNSSEC features help ensure your apps are effectively protected. Disaster recovery: With automatic detection of site failures, apps dynamically fail over to individual recovery-designated locations without intervention. Adding user-location proximity policies to DNS load balancing rules allows the steering of users to specific instances of an app. This not only improves the overall experience but it guarantees and safeguards data, effectively silo’ing user data keeping it region-specific. In the case of disaster recovery, catch-all rules can be created to send users to alternate destinations where restrictions to data don’t apply. Integrated Solution This solution uses a cloud-based Distributed Cloud DNS to load balance traffic to VIP’s that connect to region-specific pools of servers. When data privacy isn’t a requirement, catch-all rules can further distribute traffic should a preferred pool of origin servers become unhealthy or unreachable. The following solution covers the following three DNS LB scenarios: Geo-IP Proximity Active/Standby failover within a region Disaster Recovery for manually activated failovers Autonomous System Number (ASN) Lists Fallback pool for automated failovers The configuration for this solution assumes the following: The app is in multiple regions Users are from different regions Distributed Cloud hosts/manages/is delegated the DNS domain or subdomain (optional) Failover to another region is allowed Prerequisite Steps Distributed Cloud must be providing primary DNS for the domain. Your domain must be registered with a public domain name registrar with the nameservers ns1.f5clouddns.com and ns2.f5clouddns.com. F5 XC automatically validates the domain registration when configured to be the primary nameserver. Navigate to DNS Management > domain > Manage Configuration > Edit Configuration >> DNS Zone Configuration: Primary DNZ Configuration > Edit Configuration. Select “Add Item”, with Record Set type “DNS Load Balancer” Enter the Record Name and then select Add Item to create a new load balancer record. This opens the submenu to create DNS Load Balancer rules. DNS LB for Geo-Proximity Name the rule “app-dns-rule” then go to Load Balancing Rules > Configure. Select “Add Item” then under the Load Balancing Rule, within the default Geo Location Selection, expand the “Selector Expression” and select “geoip.ves.io/continent”. Select Operator “In” and then the value “EU”. Click Apply. Under the Action “Use DNS Load Balancer pool”, click “Add Item”. Name the pool “eu-pool”, and under Pool Type (A) > Pool Members, click “Add Item”. Enter a “Public IP”, then click “Apply”. Repeat this process to have a second IP Endpoint in the pool. Scroll down to Load Balancing Method and select “Static-Persist”. Now click Continue, and then Apply to the Load Balancing Rule, and then “Add Item” to add a second rule. In the new rule, choose Geo Location Selection value “Geo Location Set selector”, and use the default “system/global-users”. Click “Add Item”. Name this new pool “global-pool” and add then select “Add Item” with the following pool member: 54.208.44.177. Change the Load Balancing Mode to “Static-Persist”, then click Continue. Click “Continue”. Now set the Load Balancing Rule Score to 90. This allows the first load balancing rule, specific to EU users, to be returned as the only answer for users of that region unless the regional servers are unhealthy. Note: The rule with the highest score is returned. When two or more rules match and have the same score, answers for each rule is returned. Although there are legitimate reasons for doing this, matching more than one rule with the same score may provide an unanticipated outcome. Now click "Apply", “Apply”, and “Continue”. Click the final “Apply” to create the new DNS Zone Resource Record Set. Now click “Apply” to the DNS Zone configuration to commit the new Resource Record. Click “Save and Exit” to finalize everything and complete the DNS Zone configuration! To view the status of the services that were just created, navigate to DNS Management > Overview > DNS Load Balancers > app-dns-rule. Clicking on the rule “eu-pool”, you can find the status for each individual IP endpoint, showing the overall health of each pool’s service that has been configured. With the DNS Load Balancing rule configured to connect two separate regions, when one of the primary sites goes down in the eu-pool users will instead be directed to the global-pool. This provides reliability in the context of site failover that spans regions. If data privacy is also a requirement, additional rules can be configured to support more sites in the same region. DNS LB for Active-Passive Sites In the previous scenario, two members are configured to be equally active for a single location. We can change the weight of the pool members so that of the two only one is used when the other is unhealthy or disabled. This creates a backup/passive scenario within a region. Navigate to DNS Load Balancer Management > DNS Load Balancers. Go to the service name "app-dns-rule", then under Actions, select Manage Configuration. Click Edit Configuration for the DNS rule. Go to the Load Balancing Rules section, and Edit Configuration. On the Load Balancing Rules order menu, go to Actions > Edit for the eu-pool Rule Action. In the Load Balancing Rule menu for eu-pool, under the section Action, click Edit Configuration. In the rule for eu-pool, under Pool Type (A) > Pool Members click the Edit action In the IP Endpoint section, change the Load Balancing Priority to 1, then click Apply. Change the Load Balancing Mode to Priority, then exit and save all changes by clicking Continue, Apply, Apply, and then Save and Exit. DNS LB for Disaster Recovery Unlike with backup/standby where failover can happen automatically depending on the status of a service's health, disaster recovery (DR) can either happen automatically or be configured to require manual intervention. In the following two scenarios, I'll show how to configure manual DR failover within a region, and also how to manual failover outside the region. To support east/west manual DR failover within the EU region, use the steps above to create a new Load Balancing Rule with the same label selector as the EU rule (eu-pool) above, then create a new DNS LB pool (name it something like eu-dr-pool) and add new designated DR IP pool endpoints. Change the DR Load Balancing Rule Score to 80, and then click Apply. On the Load Balanacing Rules page, change the order of the rules and confirm that the score is such that it aligns to the following image, then click Apply, and then Save and Exit. In the previous active/standby scenario the Global rule functions as a backup for EU users when all sites in EU are down. To force a non-regional failover, you can change F5 XC DNS to send all EU users to the Global DNS rule by disabling each of the two EU DNS rule(s) above. To disable the EU DNS rules, Navigate to DNS Load Balancer Management > DNS Load Balancers, and then under Actions, select Manage Configuration. Click Edit Configuration for the DNS rule. Go to the Load Balancing Rules section, and Edit Configuration. On the Load Balancing Rules order menu, go to Actions > Edit for the eu-pool Rule Action. In the Load Balance Rule menu for eu-pool, under the section Action, click Edit Configuration. In the top section labeled Metadata, check the box to Disable the rule. Then click Continue, Apply, Apply, and then Save and Exit. With the EU DNS LB rules disabled, all requests in the EU regionare served by the Global Pool. When it's time to restore regional services, all that's needed is to re-enter the configuration rule and uncheck the Disable box to each rule. DNS LB with ASN Lists ASN stands for Autonomous System Number. It is a unique identifier assigned to networks on the internet that operate under a single administration or entity. By mapping IP addresses to their corresponding ASN, DNS LB administrators can manage some traffic more effectively. To configure Distributed Cloud DNS LB to use ASN lists, navigate toDNS Management > DNS Load Balancer Management, then "Managed Configuration" for a DNS LB service. Choose "Add Item", and on the next page, select "ASN List", and enter one or more ASN's that apply to this rule, select a DNS LB pool, and optionally configure the score (weight). When the same ASN exists in multiple DNS LB rules, the rule having the highest score is used. Note: F5 XC uses ASPlain (4-byte) formatted AS numbers. Multiple numbers are configured one per item line. DNS LB with IP Prefix Lists and IP Prefix Sets Intermediate DNS servers are almost always involved in server name resolution. By default, DNS LB doesn't see originating IP address or subnet prefix of the client making the DNS request. To improve the effectiveness of DNS-based services like DNS LB by making more informed decisions about which server will be the closest to the client, RFC 7871 proposes a solution using the EDNS0 field to allow intermediate DNS servers to add to the DNS request the client subnet (EDNS Client Subnet or EDS). The IP Prefix List and IP Prefix Set in F5 XC DNS is used when DNS requests contain the client subnet and the prefix is within one of the prefixed defined in one or more DNS LB rule sets. To configure an IP Prefix rule, navigate to DNS Management > DNS Load Balancer Management, then "Manage Configuration" of your DNS LB service. Now click "Edit Configuration" at the top left corner, then "Edit Configuration" in the section dedicated to Load Balancing Rules. Inside the section for Load Balancing Rules, click "Add Item" and in the Client Selection box choose either "IP Prefix List" or "IP Prefix Sets" from the menu. For IP Prefix List, enter the IPv4 CIDR prefix, one prefix per line. For IP Prefix Sets, you have the option of choosing whether to use a pre-existing set created in the Shared Configuration space in your tenant or you can Add Item to create a completely new set. ::rt-arrow:: Note: IP Prefix Sets are intended to be part of much larger groups of IP CIDR block prefixes and are used for additional features in F5 XC, such as in L7 WAF and L3 Network Firewall access lists. IP Prefix Sets support the use of both IPv4 and IPv6 CIDR blocks. In the following example, the configured IP Prefix rule having client subnet 192.168.1.0/24 get an answer to our eu-dr-pool (1.1.1.1). Meanwhile, a request not having a client subnet in the defined prefix and is also outside of the EU region, get an answer for the pool global-poolx (54.208.44.177).

Additional use-cases apply. The ability to make a DNS LB decision with a client subnet improves ability of the F5 XC nameservers to deliver an optimal response. DNS LB Fallback Pool (Failsafe) The scenarios above illustrate how to designate alternate pools both regional and global when an individual pool fails. However, in the event of a catastrophic failure that brings all service pools are down, F5 XC provides one final mechanism, the fallback pool. Ideally, when implemented, the fallback pool should be independent from all existing pool-related infrastructure and services to deliver a failsafe service. To configure the Fallback Pool, navigate to DNS Management > DNS Load Balancer Management, then "Managed Configuration" of your DNS LB service. Click "Edit Configuration", navigate to the "Fallback Pool" box and choose an existing pool. If no qualified pool exists, the option is available to add a new pool. In my case, I've desginated "global-poolx" as my failsafe fallback pool which already functions as a regional backup. Best practice for the fallback pool is that it should be a pool not referenced elsewhere in the DNSLB configuration, a pool that exists on completely independent resources not regionally-bound. DNS LB Health Checks and Observability For sake of simplicity the above scenarios do not have DNS LB health checks configured and it's assumed that each pool's IP members are always reachable and healthy. My next article shows how to configure health checks to enable automatic failovers and ensure that users always reach a working server. Conclusion Using the Distributed Cloud DNS Load Balancer enables better performance of your apps while also providing greater uptime. With scaling and security automatically built into the service, responding to large volumes of queries without manual intervention is seamless. Layers of security deliver protection and automatic failover. Built-in DDoS protection, DNSSEC, and more make the Distributed Cloud DNS Load Balancer an ideal do-it-all GSLB distributor for multi-cloud and hybrid apps.

In one of our environments we are configuring a single LTM VIP and load balancing multiple applications via an iRule. We currently have other LTM environments integrated via iQuery with our GTM for GSLB configuration and monitoring. Is there a way to monitor the VIP at the GTM level via iQuery that would give a true back-end pool status? Since, let's say, we are load balancing 100 different applications via a single VIP, if 99 of them went offline, the VIP would still show as ONLINE/GREEN. Or would we even go as far as integrating via iQuery and adding a dependency monitor of the pool itself instead?101Views0likes6CommentsReplacing GTM f5

When we check the error we see routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed f5 I am thinking bigip_add x.x.x.x will solve the problem however since the existing devices are on production I didnt use it instead, I uploaded the cert of existing f5 to new F5 on device management and Trusted certificate I saw on https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K85555245 Trusted device certificatesSystem>Certificate Management>Device Certificate Management>Device Trust Certificates Trusted server certificatesDNS>GSLB>Servers>Trusted Server Certificates the existing and new f5 has same certs now, however the problem is still there but this time error is different iqmgmt_ssl_connect: SSL error: Connection reset by peer (104) from connection x.x.x.x Do you guys know how to solve this SSL issue we have? I also have a question 1. when I updatedDNS>GSLB>Servers>Trusted Server CertificatesI export the server.crt from existing f5 and upload it on the new device. this overwrites the original server.crt. on the new F5. I am thinking running the bigip_add x.x.x.x but my worry is that it will make the certs doubled? because running bigip_add x.x.x.x will "append" the cert from existing F5 to new F5.. so I am thinking to delete the server.crt on my new f5, but the problem is I didnt save a backup of the original server.crt :( is there a way I can generate new server.crt on my new F5? do you think it is necessary to delete the current server.crt? or what I need is to do below per https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K9114? cat /config/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt >> /config/gtm/server.crt 2. Running bigip_add x.x.x.x will be from existing F5 correct existing f5# bigip_add x.x.x.x (new F5 IP) 3. new F5 is in v17 and existing F5s are in v14, do you guys think it is a problem?

Two-part question: 1.) For wide IP-level topology load balancing, what takes precedence: order, weight, or prefix length? (Assuming topology load balancing is choosing between pools based on source IP subnet). 2.) This question came about due to a situation in which I'm seeing some unexpected LB results. Given the below topology configuration (11.x) 1 IP Subnet is 10.0.1.0/29 Pool is West_DC_Pool 1 2 IP Subnet is 10.0.1.0/24 Pool is West_DC_Pool 150 3 IP Subnet is 10.0.0.0/24 Pool is East_DC_Pool 1 4 IP Subnet is 10.0.0.0/16 Pool is East_DC_Pool 100 The LDNS server IP is 10.0.1.5 (there's only one LDNS server at the moment) The East_DC_Pool is being chosen every time. Based on the logs, it seems to be comparing 1 (10.0.1.0/29 with a weight of 1) to 4 (10.0.0.0/16 with a weight of 100) and therefore 4 is winning based on a weight of 100. No mention of 2 (10.0.1.0/24 with a weight of 150) in the logs. If I delete 1, then 2 (10.0.1.0/24 with weight of 150) wins so traffic is then sent to West_DC_Pool. Now re-adding 1 (10.0.0.0/29 with weight 1) causes 4 (East_DC_Pool) to win again. Is this expected behavior??? I would have expected in all cases (with a LDNS IP of 10.0.1.5) that traffic would be routed to the West_DC_Pool based on either longest prefix match(1 would win), weight(2 would win), or order (again 1 would win). But maybe there's something about the order of operation that I'm unaware of. Thanks in advance, Dave347Views0likes3Comments
