Custom DNS Server¶
New in version 3.3.0.
Why do we need it?¶
Our testing tool may sometime use a DNS-server which isn’t suited for PyFunceble. This could by example be your own DNS-Firewall.
To avoid these situations, the program allows you to setup the DNS-Server that we need to use.
How does it work?¶
Note
Want to read the DNS query tool source code ?
It’s here DNSQueryTool
!
What we do is that we parse and use your given server.
How to use it?¶
By default, PyFunceble will use the system-wide DNS settings. This can be changed with the ability to configure which DNS-Servers you like PyFunceble to use during the test.
You set this up with the CLI command --dns
or insert it into your
personal .PyFunceble.yaml
dns;
server: null
to
dns:
server:
- 88.198.70.39
- 95.216.209.53
- 116.203.32.67
- 88.198.70.38
Changed in version 3.0.0.
It is now possible to assign a specific port to use with the DNS-Server.
If you don’t append a port number, the default DNS port (53) will be used.
$ pyfunceble --dns 88.198.70.38 95.216.209.53:53 116.203.32.67:853 \
