DNS and BIND: Setting Up, Managing and Securing Your DNS Server Training Course
The DNS (Domain Name System) acts as the "phone book" of the internet, maintaining a directory that maps computer names to their corresponding IP addresses. BIND is the most widely used Linux implementation of the DNS protocol. Whenever you access a website or send and receive emails, a DNS server is silently directing your communication to the correct destination.
During this instructor-led live training, participants will explore the essential features of DNS while performing practical exercises to set up and configure a BIND DNS server on Linux. The course begins with a review of fundamental networking concepts, followed by immersive hands-on practice focused on setup and configuration. Gradually, the instruction and activities advance to cover more complex subjects, including security, availability, debugging, and troubleshooting.
Course Format
- A blend of lectures and discussions, with an emphasis on extensive hands-on practice and implementation, supplemented by occasional quizzes to assess progress
