How can I
configure DNS forwarding for Internet
connection?
If you
want you DNS server to be integrated
into a larger DNS environment such as
the Internet, you will need to configure
forwarding on your server.
To
configure DNS forwarding:
-
Click
Start, point to Programs, point to
Administrative Tools, and then click
DNS to start the DNS Management
Console.
-
Right
click the DNS Server object for your
server in the left pane of the
console, and click Properties.
-
Click
the Forwarders tab.
-
Check
the Enable forwarders check-box.
-
In the
IP address box enter the IP address
of the DNS servers you want to
forward queries to - typically the
DNS server of your ISP. You can also
move them up or down. The one that
is highest in the list gets the
first try, and if it does not
respond within a given time limit -
the query will be forwarded to the
next server in the list.
-
Click
OK.
