To ensure a successful deployment of a BloxOne hosts, consider the following best practices:

  • For any BloxOne host using the BloxOne DDI capabilities, the interface should be reachable through LAN/WAN for queries from external clients needing to be resolved.

  • If you need to change the IP address of the BloxOne host after the configuration, For Docker deployments you must restart the system to ensure the change takes effect.

  • Ensure that there are no other processes using port 53 on the host system on which your BloxOne BloxOne DDI will be deployed. For example, some Ubuntu systems running local DNS cache (system-resolved) might occupy port 53, and your BloxOne host might not function properly in this case.

  • Use the most recent versions of ESXi, Docker, and Operating Systems supported, and do host patch maintenance.
