DNS views provide the ability to serve one version of DNS data to one set of clients and another version to another set of clients. With DNS views, the NIOS appliance can provide a different answer to the same DNS query, depending on the source of the query.
In Figure 18.1, the appliance has two views: an Internal and an External DNS view. When the appliance receives queries from DNS clients, it responds with data from either the Internal or External DNS view, depending on the source IP address. When the appliance receives a query from Client A and determines that it can resolve the query from data in the Internal view, the appliance responds with the IP address of the site in the Internal view. When the appliance receives a query from Client B and determines that it can resolve the query from data in the External view, it responds with the IP address in the External view.
