BIND DNS

Morpheus offers the capability to integrate directly with BIND DNS to automatically create DNS entries for Instances when they are provisioned to a configured Cloud or Group.

Integrating BIND with Morpheus

BIND integrations can be added in the global integrations section (Administration > Integrations) and, once added (assuming they are not disabled), will be available to set as the DNS provider for Clouds or Groups as needed.

  1. Navigate to Administration > Integrations

  2. Click + NEW INTEGRATION and select “Bind DNS”

  3. Configure the following:

  • NAME: A friendly name for the BIND integration in Morpheus

  • HOST: The IP address or resolvable host name for the BIND server

  • USERNAME: SSH username for a machine account on the BIND server

  • PASSWORD: Password for the user listed in the previous field (not required if using an SSH key)

  • PUBLIC KEY: Public SSH key to connect to the BIND server (not required if password provided in the prior field)

  • TSIG KEY: Enter TSIG key if required based on your configuration

  • RNDC KEY: Enter RNDC key if required based on your configuration

  • RNDC PORT: Enter the configured RNDC port

  1. Click SAVE CHANGES

If successful, a new BIND DNS entry will appear in the list alongside other integrated technologies. A green checkmark will appear next to the integration entry when Morpheus is successfully in contact with the BIND server.
