Intel® NetStructure™ 7190 Multi-Site Traffic Director User Guide

NOTE: The 7190 must be authoritative for this zone—the existing DNS server should delegate the domain to the 7190.

Creating Authority Records

Next, authority records for your two 7190s are created. These sites are used to tell DNS servers who they can query directly for other hosts in the current zone. In order for the 7190 to perform effectively, only 7190s should be authoritative for the zone.

For example, hostname ns1.xyz-ex.comat IP address 10.54.67.2 and hostname ns2.xyz-ex.comat 10.100.68.2. The authoritative DNS servers for xyz-ex.comshould contain records for these hostnames, as well as the corresponding NS records for somedomain.xyz-ex.com.(See the section, Existing DNS Servers.)
