Response policy zone contains a list of harmful domains that need to be blocked or redirected.

DNS administrators can overlay custom responses to queries on top of the global DNS space. Attempting to access sites that are harmful or illegal will be blocked or redirected.

Response policies are deployed as part of a DNS role and the deployment of the response policies takes place in the following order:

  1. Local Allowlist
  2. Local Redirect
  3. Local Blocklist
  4. Local Black hole
  5. BlueCat Security Feed

To add response policy zones with local response policies:

  1. Select the DNS tab in the sidebar, then select Views.
  2. Select the name of a view in the Views table or DNS tree.
  3. Select the RP zones tab.
  4. Select New > Local RP zone to use response policies defined in Address Manager.
  5. Under General, configure the following parameters:
    • Name—enter a name for the response policy zone.
    • Response policy—select a local response policy from the drop-down menu.
  6. In the Change control section, add comments if required.
  7. Select Create to create the response policy zone and return to the RP zones tab, or select Create and add another to create the response policy zone and re-open the Create RP zone window.
After adding Response Policy zones, you must associate the RP Zone configuration with a DNS server by adding the DNS deployment role.
