After you have successfully deployed BloxOne DDI on a host, you can start configuring global DNS properties and DNS configuration profiles to enable the DNS service on the host. The BloxOne DNS server resolves host names to IP addresses and supports 500 queries per second.
In addition, BloxOne DDI supports the following:
- Primary authoritative DNS
- Secondary authoritative DNS
- DNS server groups
- Access Control List (ACL) templates
- Recursion
- Forwarding
With the BloxOne Threat Defense license, you can also configure DNS forwarding proxy on the same host that is running BloxOne DDI DNS. For more information, see Configuring DNS Forwarding Proxy and BloxOne DDI DNS.
