In
the shortcuts section of the ,
click External Servers (DNS section). The External
Server List form opens displaying the list of external servers.
Click Add
External Server.
In the Host
Name field, enter the name of the server. For example, ns1.isp.net.
In the IP
Address field, enter the IP address of the server. For example,
65.65.65.65.
In the Key
Name field, enter the key name of the transaction signature that
authenticates zone transfers for the external server. For example, wp_default_key. (note that the dot is part of the
key name).
In the Secret
field, enter the secret value of the transaction signature that authenticates
zone transfers for the external server. For example, IC6GU6asxPceF72LjQTfUQ==.
Note:
Usually, BIND name servers are configured to secure the zone updates using
a transaction signature (TSIG) that uses a key/secret value pair. If your
external server is running BIND, and is configured to protect zone updates
using a key/secret value pair, enter the name of external server's key/secret
value pair here. If your external server is also running Ensim Pro, the
key name you need to enter is wp_default_key.
(the dot is part of the key name). The secret corresponding to that key
can be obtained from the SOA
Settings page on the control panel.
However, if your external name server is running another implementation
of DNS, such as Microsoft DNS, chances are that it does not support the
TSIG method of protecting zone updates. In this case, the external server
must be configured to allow zone updates from your Ensim Pro server, otherwise,
the Ensim Pro server will not be able to add records to any zone existing
on the external name server.
