Overview

Manage the installation and configuration of NSD (name serve daemon) and zone files.

Module Description

This module allows for the management of all aspects of the NSD configuration file, keys and zonefiles.

Setup

What nsd affects

  • Manages configuration the nsd configueration file
  • Manages zone data in the zone dir
  • dynamicly sets processor count based on installed processes
  • can manage nsd control

Setup Requirements

  • puppetlabs-stdlib 4.11.0
  • icann-tea 0.2.8
  • puppetlabs-concat 1.2.0

Beginning with nsd

Install the package an make sure it is enabled and running with default options:

class { '::nsd': }

With some basic configueration

class { '::nsd':
  ip_addresses => ['192.0.2.1'],
  rrl_size     => 1000,
}

and in hiera

nsd::ip_addresses:
- 192.0.2.1
rrl_size: 1000

Usage

Add config with tsig key

class {'::nsd': 
  default_tsig_name: 'test',
  tsigs => {
    'test',=>  {
      'algo' => 'hmac-sha256',
      'data' => 'adsasdasdasd='
    }
  }
}

or with hiera

nsd::default_tsig_name: test
nsd::tsigs:
  test:
    algo: hmac-sha256
    data: adsasdasdasd=

add zone files. zone files are added with sets of common config.

class {'::nsd': 
  remotes => {
    master_v4 => { 'address4' => '192.0.2.1' },
    master_v6 => { 'address6' => '2001:DB8::1' },
    slave     => { 'address4' => '192.0.2.2' },
  }
  zones => {
    'example.com' => {
      'masters' => ['master_v4', 'master_v6']
      'provide_xfrs'  => ['slave'],
    },
    'example.net' => {
      'masters' => ['master_v4', 'master_v6']
      'provide_xfrs'  => ['slave'],
    }
    'example.org' => {
      'masters' => ['master_v4', 'master_v6']
      'provide_xfrs'  => ['slave'],
    }
  }
}

in hiera

nsd::remotes:
  master_v4:
    address4: 192.0.2.1
  master_v6:
    address4: 2001:DB8::1
  slave:
    address4: 192.0.2.2
nsd::zones:
  example.com:
    masters: &id001
    - master_v4
    - master_v6
    provide_xfrs: &id002
    - slave
  example.net:
    masters: *id001
    slave: *id002
  example.org:
    masters: *id001
    slave: *id002

create and as112, please look at the as112 class to see how this works under the hood

  class {'::nsd::as112': }

  • default_provide_xfrs (Array[String], Default: []): Array of Knot::Remote names to use as the provide_xfr servers if none are specified in the zone hash
