IST DNS

The University of Waterloo's DNS is managed through Infoblox.

People who have access to Infoblox:

  • ztseguin
  • jxpryde

Our machines use the IST AnyCast DNS Service:

  • 129.97.2.1
  • 129.97.2.2

IST does not provide an IPv6 DNS AnyCast service at this time.

CSC DNS

CSC hosts some authoritative dns services on 129.97.134.4/2620:101:f000:4901:c5c::4 and 129.97.18.20/2620:101:f000:7300:c5c::20.

Current authoritative domains:

  • csclub.cloud
  • uwaterloo.club
  • csclub.uwaterloo.ca: A script (/opt/bindify/update-dns on dns1) runs every 10 minutes to populate this zone from the Infoblox records.
  • Any zone added to Designate DNS service on CSC Cloud


Those DNS servers are also recursive for machines located on the University network.

Miscellaneous

LOC Records

If we really cared, we might add a LOC record for csclub.uwaterloo.ca.

SSHFP

We could look into SSHFP records. Apparently OpenSSH supports these. (Discussion moved to Talk:DNS.)
