Hi,
I'm trying to configure a DNS probe using IOS SLB, but it's not working.
I followed the manual on how to configure a DNS probe, but it just doesn't make any sense.
When using DNS probes on an ACE, you give a hostname which the DNS server should resolve to a configured IP Address.and configure an ip address, which makes sense.
On the IOS SLB, it is not the case. Two variables can be configured:
Router(config-slb-probe)# address ip-address]
(Optional) Configures an IP address to which to send the Domain Name System (DNS) probe.
Router(config-slb-probe)# lookup [ip-address]
(Optional) Configures an IP address of a real server that a Domain Name System (DNS) server should supply in response to a domain name resolve request.
What am I missing. Could someone please clearify??
Tnx!

To verify that a probe is configured correctly, use the show ip slb probe command:
Router# show ip slb probe
It may help you in troubleshooting purpose
