Creating virtual servers to handle zone transfer requests for an RPZ
Determine which DNS nameservers will make zone transfer requests for an RPZ.
Create virtual servers to alert the BIG-IP system to zone transfer requests for a
RPZ.
DNS zone
transfers use TCP port
53
. This task applies only to LTM-provisioned
systems.
- On the Main tab, click .The Virtual Server List screen opens.
- Click theCreatebutton.The New Virtual Server screen opens.
- In theNamefield, type a unique name for the virtual server.
- In theDestination Address/Maskfield, type the IP address in CIDR format.The supported format is address/prefix, where the prefix length is in bits. For example, an IPv4 address/prefix is10.0.0.1or10.0.0.0/24, and an IPv6 address/prefix isffe1::0020/64or2001:ed8:77b5:2:10:10:100:42/64. When you use an IPv4 address without specifying a prefix, the BIG-IP system automatically uses a/32prefix.The IP address for this field needs to be on the same subnet as the external self-IP.
- In theService Portfield, type53.
- From theProtocollist, selectUDP.
- Optional: If you are using SNATs on your network, from theSource Address Translationlist, selectSNAT.
- Optional: From theSNAT poollist, select the name of an existing SNAT pool.
- From theConfigurationlist, selectAdvanced.
- From theDNS Profilelist, select the custom DNS profile you created.
- ClickFinished.
Create another virtual server with the
TCP protocol, but use an IPv6 address and configuration.
