What I am trying to achieve is this: I am using BIND9 only for forwarding DNS requests to other DNS Servers.
I want the entire hosts in the network : 173.252.110.0 with the host range: 173.252.110.1 - 173.252.110.254 with a total 254 addresses to be sent for reverse lookup say to DNS : 8.8.8.8, using a single zone configuration as shown below. Instead of having a zone file for each and every IP in the network, i want to use one zone file to have all the hosts in the network 173.252.110.0 to be forwarded to 8.8.8.8. So when i do a dig -x 173.252.110.27 which is in the range of the specified network, i want it be forwarded to only 8.8.8.8 When i do dig on a specific address, it gets resolved, but not through the configured DNS 8.8.8.8, but through default DNS 8.8.4.4. I hope this explains the situation which i am trying to solve with a zone file delegation. I am not sure if the zone file configuration is correct. ========================================================== dig -x 173.252.110.27, ; <<>> DiG 9.8.2rc1-RedHat-9.8.2-14.mlos2.mwg <<>> -x 173.252.110.27 ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 16896 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;27.110.252.173.in-addr.arpa.
