Hi All,

 

Just want a quick help on our issue with High DNS Issue.

I have seen this article below.

 

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.4.0/administration-guide/126629

 

And I am just wondering would it be service affecting if you would run commands like the following:

 

diagnose test application dnsproxy

1. Clear DNS cache

2. Dump DNS Setting

3. Reload FQDN

4. DNS debug bit mask

5. DNS debug obj mem

6. Restart dnsproxy worker

 

ETC.

 

REGARDS

Hello

As per my experience this latency value is not to take in consideration as long as your DNS server responds to queries in time.

Hi @imuscleupcarat,

 

Are those DNS servers in the same subnet as FortiGate? Which protocol are you using? Please provide the output of this command "show full system dns" if possible.

Hi They are using UDP port 53,

 

Can you confirm if the commands on my post are service affecting when run?
