[dnsdist] Negate Selector for NetmaskGroupRule

Thank you for that anwser Pieter,

I ended up with this:
addAction(AndRule{NotRule(NetmaskGroupRule(TrustedIntern)),makeRule({"intern.mydomain.net", "3.2.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.e.f.0.4.3.2.1.ip6.arpa"})}, RCodeAction(DNSRCode.NXDOMAIN))

I wasn't able to figure out the right syntax of NegativeAndSOAAction that's why I went with DNSRCode.
Then again we needed an exception for letsencrypt because we're using DNS challenge for internel domain names, so I came up with this:
addAction(AndRule{NotRule(NetmaskGroupRule(TrustedIntern)),NotRule(RegexRule("_acme-challenge.")),makeRule({"intern.mydomain.net", "3.2.1.0.0.0.0.0.0.e.f.0.4.3.2.1.ip6.arpa"})}, RCodeAction(DNSRCode.NXDOMAIN))

If I understand things correctly every single DNS query will trigger RegexRule, makeRule and NetmaskGroupRule check. Will this slow things down? If so, is there a better approach?

Thank you
Jochen Demmer

You can use NotRule[1] for that, like this:

    NotRule(NetmaskGroupRule(trustedNMG)

I can also recommend using makeRule[2] to create a suffix-matching
selector (it is way faster than a regex in this usecase).

So your rule would become:

addAction(AndRule{NotRule(NetmaskGroupRule(trustedNMG)),
makeRule("intern.mydomain.net")}, SetNegativeAndSOAAction([...])

Please keep in mind that SetNegativeAndSOAAction is renamed to
NegativeAndSOAAction in the upcoming 1.6 release.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Pieter
