To configure the DNS Resource as a Server type the following command:
[11:56:50] ABILIS_CPX:s p dns act:yes server:yesCOMMAND EXECUTED [11:57:20] ABILIS_CPX:d p dnsRES:Dns - Not Saved (SAVE CONF), Not Refreshed (INIT) ------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Run DESCR:Domain_Name_System LOG:NO ACT:YES udp-locport:53 SRCADD:OUT-IP TOS:0-N wdir:C:\APP\DNS\ - Resolver ------------------------------------------------------------- SERVERS:AUTO PRIMARY:# SECONDARY:# DELAY:5 RTY:1 CACHE:YES cache-size:500 - Relay/Server --------------------------------------------------------- RELAY:NO relay-size:500 RELAY-TOUT:10 RELAY-BLACKLIST:YES RELAY-BLACKLIST-BYPASS:# SERVER:YES IPSRC:* IPSRCLIST:#
Filters on the IP addresses allowed to the DNS service can be
applied by combining the parameters IPSRC and
IPSRCLIST.
In the following example, the “DNS_Allowed” list will be created and the range of IP from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.50 will be added; otherwise, the address 192.168.1.100 will be set as the IP address Source.

To activate the changes made on the upper case parameters, execute the initialization command init res:dns; while to set act the changes made on the lowercase parameters a save conf and an Abilis restart are required (i.e. With warm start command). |
DNS server table can store up to 300 definitions (association between IP address and name). The table can be displayed with the following command. The d dns ? command displays the meaning of parameters.

DR (direct and reverse): the two features are
allowed].
NAMEdomain name.
IPIP address.
TTLThe Time To Live sets the duration storage into a DNS cache system before it's considered expired.
The previous DNS records Table can be managed with these commands:
d dns : displays all Local DNS server table entries;
d dns filter:val [filter:val] : displays any Local DNS server table entry matching the specified filter(s);
a dns id:val name:<name> ip:<ip> [par:val] : adds a Local DNS server table entry;
c dns id:val : clears a Local DNS server table entry;
s dns id:val [par:val] : sets parameters of a Local DNS server table entry.
Example: assign to the IP addresses 192.168.1.20 and 192.168.1.30 the domain names john.lan and frank.lan; the first entry will be set as direct, while the second as “both” (direct+reverse).

Changes made in the DNS Server Table don't require initialization commands. |
Set the PC DNS address to point to the IP address of the CPX. Now ping from a PC one of the domain names configured in the DNS server table; the result will be:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>ping frank.lan

Tempo approssimativo percorsi andata/ritorno in millisecondi:
Minimo = 0ms, Massimo = 0ms, Medio = 0msThe DNS resolver gives the chance to choose two different set of DNS:
One for domain lookup (translation from host name to IP address);
One for reverse lookup (translation from IP address to host name).
Each set is composed from a primary and a secondary DNS server.
Use the following command to add a primary DNS Server (IP address 1.1.1.1) and a secondary DNS Server (IP address 2.2.2.2) for the domain mydomain.test. The DNS resource uses these servers to resolve <any>.mydomain.test.
