### DNS Alert Setup

DNS Monitoring

Remember to schedule the DNS lookups at regular intervals using the `Schedule Lookups` panel. Use the entry named 'DNS Lookups For Monitoring' (Enable it and specify a suitable lookup interval).

Name Server IP

Please make sure that `PHP: Net_DNS2` is installed if you want to use custom name server for DNS lookups. It is currently not installed.

If a Name Server IP is specified it will be used for all DNS lookups. See the user-guide to learn how to customize this for individual domains.

DNSBL Checks

DNSBL checks take time to complete, Do not enable this if you have a huge domain list.

Records To Monitor
Email Alerts

Even if email alerts are not enabled the DNS change data will be recorded in the audit logs.

HTTP Status Monitoring
Ping Status Monitoring
Email Recipients

For emailing the alerts. Each row can contain a name and an email separated by a semicolon (;). You may leave this empty and configure a default recipient for all reports and emails in the `Email Settings` pane.

Alert Email Delay is minutes

Setting the delay to minimum (zero) will cause an immediate email to be generated after each record change detection. The Maximum setting (60 minutes) will cause alerts to be grouped together and emailed every 60 minutes.
