DNS monitor doesn't work

Hi all,

 

 

I'm trying to create DNS monitor for my DNS servers.

 

 

I used this script:

 

https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/AdvDesignConfig.DNSMonitorUsingNSLookup.ashx

 

 

I didn't assign any parameter. When I tried to add new pool with this monitor and a member for all services (all ports) I got this message:

 

 

The monitor DNS_External_Monitor has a wildcard destination service and cannot be associated with a node that has a zero service.

 

 

 

How to solved this issue?

  • It still always marks the nodes down even though the script returns 'UP' (not sure if that is an automatic OK response, but I assume it is) have you run tcpdump to see what is going on?

    [root@ve10:Active] config  b pool dns_pool list
    pool dns_pool {
       monitor all dns_test_monitor
       members 8.8.8.8:53 {}
    }
    [root@ve10:Active] config  b monitor dns_test_monitor list
    monitor dns_test_monitor {
       defaults from external
       args "www.google.com 74.125.235.20"
       run "dns_test"
    }
    [root@ve10:Active] config  ls -l /config/monitors/dns_test
