Hello!

We recently re-addressed some of our external-facing cache servers into a new network and discovered that our IPs appear to be blackholed going to certain third-party auth servers, either intentionally or unintentionally. Our workaround while we sort through these issues is implementing forwarders.

I’d like to understand how much traffic is flowing to each forwarder (QPS, etc) and monitor that for any issues. Is there a way to do that effectively in Bind without putting some kind of network device on the outbound path to
measure it?  If not, does anyone have any suggestions?


I've done a webinar this week for ISC on the topic of "Instrumenting BIND 9 on Linux with BCC/eBPF". In this webinar, I've used logging of forwarding decisions as one example to instrument BIND 9 with eBPF. The bpftrace script I've presented might work as a starting point to create custom BIND 9 logging for forwarding operations, which does not slow down the operation of
the BIND 9 server itself.

A recording of the webinar is available at

Greetings
