Creating or editing DNS views - BlueCat Integrity - 26.1.0

Create or edit a DNS view in Address Manager. You can also configure IP restrictions when creating or editing a DNS view.

1. Select the DNS tab in the sidebar, then select Views.
2. To create a DNS view, select New. To edit a DNS view, select the row containing the DNS view in the Views table, then select Edit in the expanded details section.
3. Under General, configure the following parameters:
   • Name—enter a name for the view.
     Attention: Currently, a limitation exists whereby a space in the name of a DNS view may affect deployments with DNSSEC zone signing. If you are adding a DNS view that will be linked to a DNSSEC signing policy, the name of the view can't contain spaces. For more information, refer to article 14957 on BlueCat Customer Care.
   • Enable DNS redirection for Device Registration Portal—select this check box only when you are configuring DNS redirection for the BlueCat Device Registration Portal. Once selected, the following option appears:
     • Device Registration Portal address—enter the IPv4 address for the external BlueCat Device Registration Portal in the text field to specify the IPv4 address of an external MAC authentication portal.
4. Under IP restrictions, set the IP ranges for the zone:
   Select the restriction type as IPv4 block or IPv4 network from the drop-down menu and enter or select the IP restrictions. The selected item is added to the list of IP restrictions. All objects created within the view must fall within the blocks and networks in the IP restrictions list.

   To remove a restriction from the list, select the remove icon (x) beside the restriction.

5. In the Change control section, add comments if required.
6. Select Create to create the view and return to the Views table, or select Create and add another to create the view and re-open the Create view window.
7. If creating the view, select Create to create the view and return to the Views table, or select Create and add another to create the view and re-open the Create view window. If editing a view, select Save.
