Displaying GSLB for IPv6 configurations

2

Output differs depending on the ServerIron ADX device used and the software release installed on
the ServerIron ADX.

TABLE 23

GSLB zone and host application information

This field...

Displays...

ZONE

The zone name. The name that appears here is the name you specified
when you configured the zone information.
NOTE: This field appears only if you do not specify the zone name when

you display the information. If you specify the zone name,
information for only that zone is displayed.

HOST

The host name. The name that appears here is the name you specified
when you configured the host information.

IP addresses

The column of IP addresses lists the IP addresses the authoritative DNS
server associated with the host name in the DNS reply. These are the
servers that contain the content for the host. In this example, the
servers contain the content for www.brocade.
After evaluating the addresses using the GSLB policy, the GSLB
ServerIron ADX marks each address that passes the algorithm with an
asterisk (*). An IP address that does not have an asterisk in front of it
has not passed the GSLB algorithm and cannot be selected as the
“best” site.
NOTE: If DNS override is enabled, only the addresses configured in the

host’s IP list have asterisks and are valid choices for the best
site. Refer to

“Enabling DNS override”

on page 198.

Source

The value following each server IP address indicates how the ServerIron
ADX learned the address. This field can have one of the following values:

cfg: The address is one that you associated with the host as part of
the DNS override feature. Refer to

“Enabling DNS override”

on

page 198.

d/c: The address was learned from the DNS server and also is one
that you associated with the host.

dns: The address was learned from the DNS server.

In the example above, the ServerIron ADX learned about all the IP
addresses associated with the zone name from the IP list; thus, the
source is listed as “cfg”.

Type

The next value indicates the type of address, which can be one of the
following:

v-ip: The address is a VIP configured on a ServerIron ADX.

real-ip: The address is a real server.
