Netro: DNS

Overview
DNS (Domain Name System) resolves host names such as "www.netro.com.au"
to an IP address, such as 203.13.33.3, and directs email to the correct host
via MX (Mail eXchange) Record. These DNS records are stored on a DNS Server.
 

DNS Servers
These addresses are normally assigned automatically by our Access Server to Dialup, Permanent & DSL Connections
However if you have a subnet that is connected, you may wish to allocate the following addresses via DHCP from your
router or server.

Dialup & DSL:
Primary: 203.123.69.15 (dns1.netro.com.au)
Secondary: 203.24.100.125 (dns2.netro.com.au)

Domain Hosting & Collocation (Sydney NOC)
Primary: 203.18.16.1 (kirk.netro.com.au)
Secondary: 203.13.33.1 (picard.netro.com.au)
