A Practical Example
This section shows the files that would be needed to implement DNS for a sample Internet-connected network based on the examples used in this chapter.
Caution - The IP addresses and network numbers used in examples and code samples in this manual are for illustration purposes only. Do not use them as shown because they may have been assigned to an actual network or host.
This practical example assumes:
Example Network Domain and Zone Configuration
Name and Zone
| Number
|
doc.com
| 123.45.6
|
sales.doc.com
| 111.22.3
|
Example Network DNS Servers
Zone
| Host Name
| Function
| Address
| CNAME |
doc.com
| sirius
| primary for doc.com
| 123.45.6.1
| dnsmaster |
doc.com
| deneb
| secondary for doc.com
| 111.22.3.5
| dnssecond |
sales.doc.com
| altair
| primary for sales.doc.com
| 111.22.3.4
| dnssales |
sales.doc.com
| altair
| secondaryfor sales.doc.com
| 123.45.6.1
| dnsmaster |
Example Boot Files
The following code examples show boot files for the three servers in the two networks:
Example Boot File for dnsmastr Server
; named.boot file on the dnsmastr (sirius)
;
; files required by in.named are located here
directory /var/named
; here are the names of the primary files
cache . named.ca
primary doc.com db.doc
primary 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa named.local
primary 6.45.123.in-addr.arpa doc.rev
;This system is also the secondary for the sales.doc.com domain
secondary sales.doc.com 111.22.3.4 db.sales
secondary 3.22.111.in-addr.arpa 111.22.3.4 sales.rev
|
Example Boot File for dnssales Server
; named.boot file on the dnssales (altair)
;
; in.named is located here

; here are the names of the primary files
cache . named.ca
primary sales.doc.com db.sales
primary 0.0.127.in-addr.arpa db.127.0.0

|
Example resolv.conf Files
The following code examples show resolv.conf files for the three servers in the two networks. (If the host in question is not running in.named, the local host address should not be used as a name server.)
Example resolve.conf File for dnsmastr Server
;
; /etc/resolv.conf file for dnsmaster (sirius)
;
domain doc.com
nameserver 0.0.0.0
nameserver 111.22.3.5
|
Example resolve.conf File for dnssales Server
;
; /etc/resolv.conf file for dnssales (altair)
;
domain sales.doc.com
nameserver 111.22.3.4
nameserver 123.45.6.1
|
Example resolve.conf File for dnssecond Server
;
; /etc/resolv.conf for dnssecond
;
domain doc.com
nameserver 111.22.3.5
nameserver 123.45.6.1
|
Example named.local File
The following code example shows the named.local file used by the two primary servers on the two networks. Both servers have the same file.
Example named.local File for Both Primary Servers
