Setting up DNS pool - multiple ip's for a single FQDN host resolution

Using DNS services provided by UTM 9.x.

I need to override resolution provided by upstream dns servers.

Trying to set up a pool of ip's that point to a single hostname (ie domain.com). 

How do I do this?  Host configuration only allows a single IP to be used. 

Say I want domain.com to resolve to 1.1.1.1, 2.2.2.2, 3.3.3.3, etc.

 

Thanks!

  • You could use the load balancing function at Network Protection>>Server Load Balancing

    It does not do EXACTLY what you want, though I think you could set it up that way.

    So, for instance, you could have  a listener on a VIP of 10.10.10.10 that load balances to 1.1.1.1, 2.2.2.2 and 3.3.3.3. You would then just point your DNS to the VIP and you would be in business.

    A very insightful answer - glad to have you with us.  This thread is another demonstration of the importance of explaining what the underlying problem is or what one wants to accomplish instead of just asking for help with the solution one has imagined.
