Hello,
I would like to setup my mikrotik to be a master DNS server so i can read configuration from other slaves.
Also i must check “allow remote requests” checkbox in DNS config but i do not know how to limit the mikrotik to
answer only for domains for which it has some static entries. I do not want an open resolver.
Anyone knows how to do that ?
Regards,
Not with RouterOS, it doesn’t have any support for this kind of use.
RouterOS DNS implementation is purely for relaying, i.e. a client DNS - it caches, you can force some static rules but it is not suitable for nameserver or actual hosting.
You could ‘almost’ hack it by not having any DNS servers configured for it to query, then just static entries, so non-existent entries should timeout (untested), but it’d be such a pain to manage adding zones that surely any form of proper DNS server would take half the time to setup and use.
