A system administrator can activate advanced downstream DNS configuration mode through the management API. The advanced downstream DNS configuration mode offers more control over the HCP system downstream DNS configuration than the basic panel provides. For more information on enabling advanced downstream DNS configuration mode, see the HCP Management API Reference manual.
Once enabled, advanced DNS downstream configuration mode replaces the Downstream DNS Configuration panel of an individual network on the Network►Network View page with Zone Entry and Forward Zone File fields that let you work directly with the HCP DNS management files. In order to use these fields, you need to have the service role. Using advanced downstream DNS configuration mode is not recommended unless you have an extensive background in networking. User accounts with the monitor role enabled can see the created networks.
Downstream DNS configuration supports 32 downstream DNS servers.
