[leaf-user] dnsmasq experiments
by Victor McAllister

REPLY TO GROUP




I have been playing with dnsmasq to see if I can improve the way it
functions on my 3 network wrap box.
here are some of the changes I made to dnsmasq.conf

domain-needed

bogus-priv

I use dhcp-host= to configure each client
**

TO prevent windows boxes from filling the daemon log up with attempts to
find nonexistent proxies.

dhcp-option=252,"\n"
**
uncomented and increased the cache size

cache-size=600

***

Here are some nslookup tests. My Leaf box is shadrach. My isp's primary
dns is ns1.sonic.net

shadrach# nslookup ns1.sonic.net 127.0.0.1
server: 127.0.0.1
address 1: 127.0.0.1 localhost

name: ns1.sonic.net
address 1: ns1.sonic.net 208.201.224.11

****
from a client windows shell

>nslookup
server: shadrach
address: 192.168.1.254

which indicates it knows dns is on the leaf box.

>nslookup ns1.sonic.net
server: ns1.sonic.net
address: 208.201.224.11

Any suggestions are welcome.

Victor
