One of the things you may want to look into, is the notions of "acl" and "masters". These are sections in named.conf that you can give names, that can be referenced elsewhere. Below is one such config I have in my own systems (with IP addresses partially redacted):
// Access Control Lists // Source: https://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch7/acl.html acl admin { 192.168.##.#; }; acl internal { admin; 192.168.##.#; 192.168.##.#; 192.168.##.#; }; acl external { admin; 192.168.##.#; 192.168.##.##; 192.168.##.##; }; // Masters // Source: https://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/ch7/masters.html masters satellite { 192.168.##.#; }; Hope this helps. -- Met vriendelijke groet, Michael De Roover Mail: i...@nixmagic.com Web: michael.de.roover.eu.org -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
