This version of CloudStack allows control over the visibility of the DNS services provided
40

by the Virtual Router. One can control whether the service on the routers be available to
41
-
networks outside the local network. This might be important on Shared Networks which are
42
-
using Internet routable/public (i.e. non-RFC 1918) IP addresses. The new global setting
43
-
"expose.dns.externally" has been added with a default value of "true" in order to keep backward compatibility
44

with the previous installations. If you wish to disable public access to the DNS services
45

running on Virtual Router, set the value to "false" and recreate the related Virtual Routers.

by the Virtual Router in Shared networks. By default CloudStack allows DNS queries via the
43

Guest interface from any IP address. This allows for the DNS resolution of guest VMs on the
44

Shared network by services outside of the shared network. While this can be useful, it can
45
+
also be an issue on Shared Networks which are using Internet routable/public (i.e. non-RFC1918)
46
+
IP addresses, as the DNS service is then queriable from the public internet at large. A new
47
+
global setting "expose.dns.externally" has been added (with a default value of "true" in
48

order to keep backward compatibility) which controls whether the source of DNS queries
49

should be limited to only hosts on the Shared Network guest subnet or not. If you wish
50

to disable 'outside' access to the DNS services running on Virtual Routers; set the value
51

to "false" and recreate the related Virtual Routers.
