BIND - Standard Dynamic DNS Updates
Previous Topic  Top  next topic

In BIND (version 8.x.x and later), standard dynamic DNS updates are configured individually for each DNS zone.

To enable standard dynamic DNS updates in BIND, follow these steps:

Open the named.conf file in a text editor, and add an allow-update statement to the zone you want Simple Failover to update:


The IP address between the curly-brackets must be the IP address of the computer running Simple Failover.

After editing and saving the named.conf
file, you must restart BIND for the changes to take effect.

See the Standard Dynamic DNS update section for more details on this update method.
