Hi,

It really depends on what you want to do or implement for the DNS. The DNS
guard on PIX is enabled by default and it cannot be disabled not configured.
It help to prevent against DoS attacks by tearing down the UDP conduit on
the PIX firewall as soon as the DNS response is received not waiting until
thee the default UDO timer has expire which is 2 minutes( almost an eternity
in the computer world).

The other doctoring you can do on DNS is on CBAC (Context Based Access
Control). Here you can alter the default DNS timeout which is 5 seconds by
using:

#IP inspect dns-timeout 

It simplyly specifies the length of time a DNS name lookup session will
still be managed after no activity.

In case you need further help, feel free to ask specific questions.

Regards.
Oletu
