DNS and squid

  • to add new IPs for squid:
    • add the IPs in /var/named/master/wikipedia.zone in the obvious places (on zwinger)
    • make sure to update the serial number in the zone file!
    • run rndc reload to make it update - no need to restart named
  • for 3 squids - use 6 IPs, to allow even load-balancing if 1 or 2 squids go down
  • 2 scripts in /home/wikipedia/bin:
    • takeip
    • dropip (vapourware)
  • some useful commands:
    • dig ANY en.wikipedia.org @zwinger.wikipedia.org
    • dig +short ANY en.wikipedia.org


Virtual IPs

browne:    207.142.131.235, 207.142.131.247
coronelli: 207.142.131.236, 207.142.131.248
maurus:    207.142.131.245, 207.142.131.246
  • According to damyta, should use 255.255.255.255 for netmask for the IPs of virtual eth interfaces - otherwise there can be routing confusion.
  • You must ping through the switch via a virtual interface which you have just brought up (using ping -I), to update the switch's idea of who has what IP. When pinging with -I207.142.131.248 or similar, use suda as the ping target; pinging the broadcast address does not always work.
    • Can use script takeip in /h/w/bin to take over an IP if a squid goes down.
    • To take down a virtual eth interface, /sbin/ifconfig eth0:n down
    • TODO: set up heartbeat for automatic IP takeover.
