Associating
Services with
Agents

Next, services must be associated with agent(s):

HP SA9200# config dns agents lb1 services

create 10.54.67.5:80

HP SA9200# config dns agents lbl services

create 10.54.67.6:80

HP SA9200# config dns agents lb2 services

create 10.100.68.5:80

HP SA9200# config dns agents lb2 services

create 10.100.68.6:80

Creating
Zones

The next step is to create a zone (e.g., somedomain.xyz-ex.com) on the
SA9200. The command to do this is:

HP SA9200# config dns zones create

somedomain.xyz-ex.com

Creating
Authority
Records

Next, authority records for your two SA9200s are created. These sites
are used to tell DNS servers who they can query directly for other
hosts in the current zone. In order for the SA9200 to perform
effectively, only SA9200s should be authoritative for the zone.

NOTE: The SA9200
must be authoritative for
this zone—the existing
DNS server should
delegate the domain to
the SA9200.

For example, hostname ns1.xyz-ex.com at IP address 10.54.67.2 and
hostname ns2.xyz-ex.com at 10.100.68.2. The authoritative DNS
servers for xyz-ex.com should contain records for these hostnames, as
well as the corresponding NS records for somedomain.xyz-ex.com.
(See the section, Existing DNS Servers.)

HP SA9200# config dns zones somedomain.xyz-

ex.com

HP SA9200/config/dns/zones/somedomain.xyz-

ex.com# create-authority ns1.xyz-ex.com ip

10.54.67.2

Create Authority Successful

HP SA9200/config/dns/zones/somedomain.xyz-

ex.com# create-authority ns2.xyz-ex.com ip

10.100.68.2
