The

Name DNS query

option allows specification of a rule for name queries. Use the

the queried name matches

entry to specify a corresponding DNS name (name of a host

in the domain).

It is usually desirable to forward queries to entire domains rather than to specific

names. Specification of a domain name may therefore contain

wildcard symbol

(asterisk — substitutes any number of characters) and/or

(question mark — substi-

tutes a single character). The rule will be applied to all names matching with the string

(hosts, domains, etc.).

Example:

DNS name will be represented by the string

?erio.c*

. The rule will be applied to all

names in domains

kerio.com

cerio.com

aerio.c

etc., such as on

www.kerio.com

secure.kerio.com

www.aerio.c

, etc.

Warning

In rules for DNS requests, it is necessary to enter an expression matching the full DNS

name! If, for example, the

kerio.c*

expression is introduced, only names

kerio.cz

kerio.com

etc. would match the rule and host names included in these domains (such

www.kerio.cz

and

secure.kerio.com

) would not!

•

Use the

Reverse DNS query

alternative to specify rule for DNS queries on IP addresses

in a particular subnet. Subnet is specified by a network address and a corresponding

mask (i.e.

192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0

•

Use the

Then forward query to DNS Server(s)

field to specify IP address(es) of one or

more DNS server(s) to which queries will be forwarded.

If multiple DNS servers are specified, they are considered as primary, secondary, etc.

If the

Do not forward

option is checked, DNS queries will not be forwarded to any

other DNS server —

WinRoute

will search only in the

hosts

local file or in DHCP ta-

bles (see below). If requested name or IP address is not found, non-existence of the

name/address is reported to the client.

Simple DNS resolution

DNS Forwarder

can be used as a simple DNS server, typically for a local domain. If the simple

DNS resolution is set, the

DNS forwarder

attempts to respond to the received DNS query first

and it does not forward it to another DNS server unless unsuccessful.

Before forwarding a query...

These options allow setting of where the

DNS Forwarder

would search for the name or IP

address before the query is forwarded to another DNS server.

’hosts’ file

— this file can be found in any operating system supporting TCP/IP.

Each row of this file includes host IP addresses and a list of appropriate DNS
