Description | This article describes how to Implement FortiGate as a Local DNS server database. |
Scope | FortiGate DNS feature. Version 6.4.10. |
Solution |
Scenario: 1) FortiGate will be used as a local DNS server database.
2) Global DNS server will be used to resolve global domain.
Local domain name : 40gate.co.id DNS interface (port4) : 172.16.10.254
FortiGate DNS config: no firewall policy rule is required.
User testing:
Local DNS can successfully be resolved.
Global DNS can successfully be resolved.
DNS request process on FortiGate –-> for local entry, FortiGate will check its own database – cause FortiGate is aware of its local domain name.
'40gate.co.id'.
DNS cache: local entry database will not be cached.
Dumb DNS database.
