Re: EDNS Compliance

I just reconfigured our SRX and everything seems to be working now. I wasn’t 
aware that some alg’s were enabled by default so thank you for pointing that 
out.

Max

Authoritative DNS High Memory Usage

2019-01-19 Thread Jordan Tinsley
Hello,

 

I have 2 Authoritative DNS Servers that are strictly Authoritative.  I am
new to Authoritative DNS and Bind.  Both have 4 GB RAM and Quad CPUs running
in a VM of their own on 2 separate VM Hosts.  Both Servers transfer between
each other and answer to public requests from other Public DNS as well as
rDNS lookups.

 

DNS01 has extremely high memory usage while DNS02 has memory usage around
50% and fluctuates up and down.

 

I have read about memory usage limits you can put in the configuration file,
but wasn't sure if that would be the best way to resolve the issue.

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks,

Jordan
