How to add SRV records to DNS on a Netvanta 3120?

[Anonymous]

Is is possible to make entries SRV into the DNS tables in a NetVanta 3120. I need to add an entry

_ldap._tcp.domain.com 1.2.3.4 ?

If so, what is the command to add then entry?

Thanks in Advance,

Mike

You definitely can Michael!  To do this, you would need to set up domain-proxy inside the router.  This allows the router to respond to DNS requests.   You would reconfigure all of the hosts in your network to use the inside IP of your router as their DNS server.

Then, on the router you will add these commands:

ip domain-proxy

ip host _ldap._tcp.domain.com 1.2.3.4

Always, you can configure more extries with that IP host command as many times as you need.

If you are using the GUI all of this can be done through the section hostname/DNS by clicking the button next domain-proxy and then adding a host entry at the bottom.

After adding that entry the entry appears as an "A" record NOT a SRV record.

How do I specify that record type?

Michael,

I'm sorry I misunderstood the question before.  Our routers do not support static SRV entries.  However if the entry is located somewhere else, we can populate our table with it if you query that DNS server for the SRV record.
