Catchall DNS and Redirect to host

L1 Bithead

My old firewall was able to catch all dns requests from a zone and redirect them to a defined server.  I cannot find a way to do that on the Palo Alto. Can it be done?

@Jimbo_NGC,

Are you talking about DNS Proxy? If yes then the firewall is perfectly able to do the same thing now. I've included a link HERE that will walk you through enabling the feature and getting it setup. 

Unfortunatly not, it is more like a proxy redirect where the firewall see port 53 traffic outbound from any to any and redirects the traffic to a host that then responds.   Saves a lot of time changing dns server entries in hundreds of static hosts as i migrate between firewalls or change designs.  Thank you for your reply.

What about doing a destination NAT policy ?

@Jimbo_NGC,

I would think that @khuynh's suggestion of a Destination NAT would probably work out alright. Personally I would look at using PBF to force the traffic to the destination that you prefer. 

The NAT solution from any to any on 53 would not save without errors. I will look a PBF to see if it is an option. This just may be a limitation in functionality.   

 

Thank you both for your efforts.

Putting it into other terms, I need to do a DNS sinkhole rule/nat that I can define myself on traffic between zones.
