CHAPTER 6 IN-BOUND FUNCTION
Authorities DNS is just a fancy term for the official IP address keeper/provider of
particular Domain (or Internet) name, such as www.example.com is analogous to a
telephone book where a person’s name is associated with his telephone number.
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia has a good general discussion of DNS:

This IN-BOUND ROUTER DNS server contains the names and Internet addresses of
servers that you wish to host. In order for all DNS requests for your domain names
to be ultimately routed to your IN-BOUND ROUTER, it has to be setup at the
registrar of your Internet name. In general, logon to your registrar site, and manage
your domain name. For example, www.example.com Currently is located at a
WEBhosting company: Domain servers in listed order:
NS0.DNSMADEEASY.COM NS1.DNSMADEEASY.COM
NS2.DNSMADEEASY.COM NS3.DNSMADEEASY.COM
NS4.DNSMADEEASY.COM We need to change www.example .com to be hosted
by IN-BOUND ROUTER; so we follow the registrar’s instructions and delete: NS2,
NS3, and NS4, and assign:
Domain servers:
Domain servers:
Name IP address
NS0.EXAMPLE.COM WAN1
NS1.EXAMPLE.COM WAN2
The name is arbitrary; what are important are the IP addresses. It is absolutely
necessary for WAN1 to be a static address, and for redundant, fault-tolerant accesses,
WAN2 should also be a static address. It would take approximately 24 – 48 hours
for this change to take effect throughout the Internet. Below is the actual display of
