<p>In that case how about other entries from same zone? I m talking about any consequences on static entries or the ones which I dont want to me dynamic. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><div><div><div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Well, I am trying to configure DNS System Monitoring stuff with Nagios plugins. This monitor the server status and if any of th link fails remove the said IP from zone and reload the zone. This entry would have low TTL so that traffic would be routed to new entry instantly.<br>
<br>Lets say I have two ISPs terminated on my firewall and <a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">www.example.com</a> with private IP 172.16.3.10 is natted with 1.2.3.4 and 5.6.7.8 with TTL value 300<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Nagios plugin check_tcp would monitor those links or IPs on port 80 and if any of the link fails I can have by any mean edit the zone file and remove the IP associated with failed link so that traffic would never reach to that IP.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Upon recovery the plugin will show the result GREEN and I can again have the A record added in zone file, thus reload the zone. Due to the low TTL I believe there shouldn't be any issue for populating those changes faster. <u></u><u></u></p>
