Introduction

Hands on DNS and DNSSEC Three day course – Philip Paeps

Objectives

At the end of this course, participants will be familiar with the Domain Name System and Security Extensions to the Domain Name System (DNSSEC). The course is taught "hands-on" in a virtualised FreeBSD environment. Participants will configure authoritative and recursive domain name servers and will learn to analyse and debug common misconfigurations and bugs

Prerequisites

Participants should be familiar with Unix-style operating systems. The course is taught on FreeBSD but the environment will be familiar to people with a systems administration background on Linux or Solaris. Participants should bring their own laptops. The virtualised lab environment is hosted on a server in Germany. Reliable internet connectivity with reasonable latency is required

Participants

Systems administrators and network operators responsible for the DNS services in their organisation.

Workshop Requirements

  • Some understanding of DNS is required (for example, operational experience managing DNS servers is useful)
  • Some knowledge of Linux/UNIX command line
  • Good understanding of network basics (IP networking)
  • All participants will need to bring a laptop with WiFi access. You cannot use a tablet for this workshop.

Instructors

Philip Paeps
