  • set monitor dns –Activates DNS monitoring in NIOS. This command is disabled on IB-4030 or IB-4030-10GE with an active DNS Cache Acceleration license.
  • show monitor dns –Displays DNS network monitoring data. This command is disabled on IB-4030 or IB-4030-10GE with an active DNS Cache Acceleration license.
  • set interface–Defines port speed and duplex settings for all supported interfaces.
  • show interface–Shows the status and configuration of a chosen port.
  • show smartnicshow dns accel–Shows the cusrrent status of the appliance. This command applies only to IB-4030 or IB-4030-10GE appliances.
  • show smartnicdns accel-cache–You can view the current accelerator cache contents or view the prior cache dump file. This command may affect DNS query response performance for around 15 seconds during execution. This command applies only to IB-4030 and IB-4030-10GE appliances with DNS cache acceleration license enabled.
  • set smartnic set dns accel log–Specify the log level for the DNS Cache Acceleration service on the appliance.
  • set temp_license–Generates and installs a temporary DNS cache acceleration license. You can add a temporary DNS cache acceleration license for up to one million qps. Note that you cannot add a temporary license if a permanent license already exists.
  • show license–Displays the capacity of the applicable DNS cache acceleration license type.
  • show smartnicdns accel-cache existing-file–Displays the existing cache data file of IB-4030 and IB-4030-10GE.

The CLI commands listed below are frequently used on the appliance. For detailed information about the supported CLI commands, refer to the Infoblox CLI Guide.

Infoblox > set dns flush all

...

show dns

The show dns command displays DNS query statistics for all DNS views in the IB-4030 or IB-4030-10GE appliance. It also displays the recursive cache for the specified DNS views.
