Hi all,
I am trying to see if my DNS is set up correctly. It seems I get very slow resolution on some sites (cnn.com) but then once i get it things are fast. Here's my set up, i'm curious what errors i may have made:
ADSL connection is on a SpeedTouch Pro ADSL router, i set defserver=[asl external nic] so all packets go to ASL's external (10.0.0.1). Then, ASL internal is 192.168.0.1. It has a dns proxy turned on pointing to my ISP's DNS. I then set my def gw and dns to 192.168.0.1 (internal ASL), so workstations use the proxy.
My question: do i need to set any rules to allow DNS packets (UDP port 53?) to my workstations? It seems name resolution is slower than it should be ...
I constantly see this in the Packet Filter violation log (on multiple public ips, of course):
10.0.0.1 1108 -> 62.189.244.232 53 UDP
Does that mean it is dropping dns requests?
Thanks,
August
