IP Addresses Making Queries to the Family DNS

This page, available from the system context menu, displays daily statistics listing the IP addresses making queries to the ‘Family DNS’ with the following details:

  • Date of the query;
  • IP address;
  • Count of queries;
  • Count of responses from cache;
  • Count of errors for unresolvable domains;
  • Count of queries blocked because blacklisted;
  • Count of queries not enabled due to defined filters;
  • Average response time in milliseconds

For the current day, all queried domains are reported. For the previous days, the statistics of domains with the most queries are maintained according to what is defined in the “System Settings” in the “Save Domain Statistics” field.

This list can be useful to understand possible abuses or queries made by brute force-type attacks received from unpermitted IP addresses or networks.

IP address statistics are kept for thirty days and then deleted.
