leonid1890 — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:46:36 GMT

Hello,

After I perform Clean Install on my Gaia R81.20 in the configuration appeared new command I didn't have before.

set dns mode default

How can I delete it if it possible.

I dont have anything less than R81.20 in the lab to confirm this, but regardless, if its there, you cant really delete it, its part of the OS.

I have another Gateway R81.20 and it didn't have this line in the CLI configuration, it is appear only after clean install.

Maybe someone from CP can comment on this, but I also checked my R82 and I see those options there. Just to make sure, if you do same on the other R81.20 gateway, do you see options I pasted below?

Andy

R82> set dns
mode - DNS mode
primary - Primary DNS Server
proxy - Set DNS Proxy related values
secondary - Secondary DNS Server
suffix - DNS suffix
tertiary - Tertiary DNS Server
timeout - Timeout for DNS responses.
R82> set dns mode
default - Set DNS mode to default
per-vs - Set DNS mode to per-vs
R82>

Yep, seems thats new in R82. I get same in R81.20

[Expert@CP-FW-01:0]# clish
sCP-FW-01> set dns
mode - DNS mode
primary - Primary DNS Server
proxy - Set DNS Proxy related values
secondary - Secondary DNS Server
suffix - DNS suffix
tertiary - Tertiary DNS Server
CP-FW-01> set dns

R82:

R82> set dns timeout default
DNS timeout:
Set the amount of time (in seconds) the resolver will wait for a response from a remote name server
before retrying the query via a different name server.
The default timeout is 30 seconds.

R82> set dns timeout default

Why would anyone delete a clish configuration command = this idea itself is rather sick, as i can think of no reason for such a wish.

I have found that the command is present in R81.10, too:

GWS76> set dns
GWS76> set dns
CLINFR0339  Incomplete command.
GWS76> set dns
mode      - DNS mode
primary   - Primary DNS Server
proxy     - Set DNS Proxy related values
secondary - Secondary DNS Server
suffix    - DNS suffix
tertiary  - Tertiary DNS Server
GWS76> set dns
mode      - DNS mode
primary   - Primary DNS Server
proxy     - Set DNS Proxy related values
secondary - Secondary DNS Server
suffix    - DNS suffix
tertiary  - Tertiary DNS Server

It is also present on GAiA Embedded at least since R80.20.xx and in GAiA at least since R80.40, see https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R80.40/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R80.40_Gaia_AdminGuide/Topics-GAG/Hosts-and-DNS-DNS.htm

There is no need to delete anything, the system is functioning as normal with that line in the configuration. It's VSX related, so you can set 'per-VS' DNS when running in VSX mode, if you're not using VSX mode then leave it as is and nothing has changed compared to a system that doesn't have it there.
