Adding Hosts to ACL
To add a new host to the ACL of your name server, use the add_to_acl operation. You can add multiple hosts to ACL using a single packet. This operation is available on Linux only.
Request Packet Structure
A request XML packet adding a new host to the ACL includes the add_to_acl operation node:
<packet version="1.4.2.0">
<dns>
<add_to_acl>
...
</add_to_acl>
</dns>
</packet>
The graphical representation of the add_to_acl node is as follows:
- The filter node is required. It specifies the filtering rule. For more information, refer to the Available Filters section. Data type: aclFilter (
dns_input.xsd
).
You can add multiple hosts to the ACL in a single packet using filters. Add as many host parameters to the filter node as the number of hosts you want to add to the ACL.
Response Packet Structure
The add_to_acl node of the output XML packet is structured as follows:
- The result node is optional. It is required in case when an error (if it occurred) was not of a system type. Data type: aclresultType (
common.xsd
). - The status node is required. It specifies the execution status of the get_acl operation. Data type: string. Allowed values: ok | error.
- The errcode node is optional. It is used to return the error code when the get_acl operation fails. Data type: unsignedInt.
- The errtext node is optional. It is used to return the error message if the get_acl operation fails. Data type: string.
- The host node is optional. It is required in case when an error (if it occurred) was not of a common type. Returns the IP address or name of hosts from the ACL. Data type: string.
