This article will describe running DNS server for private network.
This DNS server does not use recursion query for outside of private network.
Table of Contents
1 System environment
Private network address is 192.168.11.0/24.
Private network name is my.net.
IP address of DNS server is 192.168.11.70.
IP address of local machine inside private network is 192.168.11.128.
2 Install bind
Install bind with yum.
$ sudo yum install -y bind
3 Configuration
Editing /etc/named.conf and adding zone file for my.net.
3.1 /etc/named.conf
Allow query from private network and disallow recursion query.
Load zone file "my.net.zone" for private network "my.net".
And do not load other zone files.
A directory directive defines path of zone files.

3.2 /var/named/my.net.zone
Mapping 192.168.11.70, which is IP address of DNS server, to centos-7-server as NS record.
Mapping 192.168.11.128, which is IP address of local machine, to centos-7-client as A record. If you want to map more, please append A record.
$ sudo cat /var/named/my.net.zone $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA my.net root.my.net ( 2016050204 3600 900 604800 86400 ) @ IN NS centos-7-server centos-7-server IN A 192.168.11.70 centos-7-client IN A 192.168.11.128
3.3 Validation
named-checkconf validates /etc/named.conf.
$ sudo named-checkconf
named-checkzone validates zone file.
$ sudo named-checkzone my.net /var/named/my.net.zone zone my.net/IN: loaded serial 2016050204 OK
4 firewalld
Open 53/tcp and 53/udp with a service file of dns at /usr/lib/firewalld/services/dns.xml.
$ sudo firewall-cmd --add-service=dns --permanent success $ sudo firewall-cmd --reload success
5 Run named
Run named with systemctl.
$ sudo systemctl enable named $ sudo systemctl start named
6 Execution result
/etc/resolv.conf is as below.
This uses 192.168.11.70 for private network name resolution and 192.168.11.1 for internet name resolution.
/etc/resolv.conf in CentOS 7 will be created by dhcp server.
$ cat /etc/resolv.conf # Generated by NetworkManager search my.net nameserver 192.168.11.70 nameserver 192.168.11.1
