Ubuntu - Bind - Test Bind9

resolv.conf

The first step in testing BIND9 is to add the nameserver’s IP Address to a hosts resolver.

The Primary nameserver should be configured as well as another host to double check things.

Refer to DNS client configuration for details on adding nameserver addresses to your network clients.

In the end your nameserver line in /etc/resolv.conf should be pointing at 127.0.0.53 and you should have a search parameter for your domain. Something like this:

/etc/resolv.conf
nameserver  127.0.0.53
search example.com

To check which DNS server your local resolver is using, run:

systemd-resolve --status

NOTE: You should also add the IP Address of the Secondary nameserver to your client configuration in case the Primary becomes unavailable.
