Regarding the tools to measure DNS performance I usually use two: resperf and dnsperf, both are from Nominum and can be found here: https://nominum.com/measurement-tools/ Some years ago I posted this in Spanish: http://blog.acostasite.com/2010/02/realizar-estudios-de-performance-sobre.ht..., probably it can help you: Regards, Alejandro, El 5/19/2015 a las 1:04 PM, Zayed Mahmud escribió:
Hello! This is my first message to NANOG's mailing list. I hope someone can help me.
I was wondering which tool(s) can I use to measure the performance of my 3 DNS servers (1 primary, 1 secondary, 1 solely cacheDNS)? From the stats I would like to know if my DNS server is serving as it should be or if any of it's options are set inappropriately and others alike.
I looked for a while but could not find any. Any help would be highly appreciated. I am running bind9 on UNIX platform.
Question 2) I would also like to know how can I graph my DNS logs? And how can I integrate it to my CACTI server as well? I couldn't find any suitable plugin. Any suggestion?
