dns forward retry-timeout

dns forward retry-timeout

Function

The dns forward retry-timeout command sets the retransmission timeout period that the device sends Query packets to the destination DNS server.

The undo dns forward retry-timeout command restores the default retransmission timeout period.

By default, the retransmission timeout period for which the device sends DNS query requests to the destination DNS server is 3 seconds.

Format

dns forward retry-timeout time

undo dns forward retry-timeout

Parameters

Parameter

Description

Value
time

Specifies the retransmission timeout period that the device sends Query packets to the destination DNS server.

The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 15, in seconds.

Usage Guidelines

The mode for a device to select the destination DNS server can be auto and fixed. For how a device sends DNS request packets to the destination DNS server in each mode and the corresponding precautions, see dns-server-select-algorithm.

If the number of times for the device to retransmit DNS request packets to each destination DNS server is relatively large and the packet retransmission timeout period is relatively long, the time for the DNS client to wait for the response from the DNS server is too long. However, the request timeout period of the DNS client is shorter, so that the DNS client fails to properly receive response packets from the server. To enable the DNS server to rapidly respond DNS request packets, you can run the dns forward retry-number and dns forward retry-timeout commands to adjust the number of times for the device to retransmit DNS request packets to each DNS server and the packet retransmission timeout period for ensuring that the DNS client can properly receive response packets from the server.

You need to consider the number of times for the device to retransmit DNS query requests to the destination DNS server, retransmission timeout period, and mode for the device to select the DNS server into consideration before configuring the query timeout period on a device.
  • When the mode for a device to select the destination DNS server is auto, the query timeout period of a DNS device is calculated as follows: (Number of retransmission times + 1) x Retransmission timeout period
  • When the mode for a device to select the destination DNS server is fixed, the query timeout period of a DNS device is calculated as follows: (Number of retransmission times + 1) x Retransmission timeout period x Number of DNS servers

Example

# Set the retransmission timeout period that the device sends Query packets to the destination DNS server to 2 seconds.
