# dnstap
|
|
|
|
## Name
|
|
|
|
*dnstap* - enables logging to dnstap.
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
dnstap is a flexible, structured binary log format for DNS software; see https://dnstap.info. With this
|
|
plugin you make CoreDNS output dnstap logging.
|
|
|
|
Every message is sent to the socket as soon as it comes in, the *dnstap* plugin has a buffer of
|
|
10000 messages, above that number dnstap messages will be dropped (this is logged).
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
### Outgoing Connections (Connect to Sink)
|
|
|
|
~~~ txt
|
|
dnstap SOCKET [full] [writebuffer] [queue] {
|
|
[identity IDENTITY]
|
|
[version VERSION]
|
|
[extra EXTRA]
|
|
[skipverify]
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
* **SOCKET** is the socket (path) supplied to the dnstap command line tool.
|
|
* `full` to include the wire-format DNS message.
|
|
* **writebuffer** sets the TCP write buffer multiplier in MiB. Valid range: [1, 1024].
|
|
* **queue** sets the queue multiplier, applied to 10,000 messages. Valid range: [1, 4096].
|
|
* **IDENTITY** to override the identity of the server. Defaults to the hostname.
|
|
* **VERSION** to override the version field. Defaults to the CoreDNS version.
|
|
* **EXTRA** to define "extra" field in dnstap payload, [metadata](../metadata/) replacement available here.
|
|
* `skipverify` to skip tls verification during connection. Default to be secure
|
|
|
|
### Incoming Connections (Accept from Sinks)
|
|
|
|
~~~ txt
|
|
dnstap listen SOCKET [full] {
|
|
[identity IDENTITY]
|
|
[version VERSION]
|
|
[extra EXTRA]
|
|
[tls CERT KEY [CA]]
|
|
[skipverify]
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
* `listen` indicates this is a listening socket that accepts incoming connections from dnstap sinks.
|
|
* **SOCKET** is the socket address to listen on (e.g., `tcp://127.0.0.1:6000`, `unix:///tmp/dnstap.sock`).
|
|
* `full` to include the wire-format DNS message.
|
|
* **IDENTITY** to override the identity of the server. Defaults to the hostname.
|
|
* **VERSION** to override the version field. Defaults to the CoreDNS version.
|
|
* **EXTRA** to define "extra" field in dnstap payload, [metadata](../metadata/) replacement available here.
|
|
* `tls CERT KEY [CA]` to enable TLS for the listener. **CERT** and **KEY** are paths to the server certificate and key files. Optional **CA** is the path to the CA certificate for client verification.
|
|
* `skipverify` to skip client certificate verification. Default is to verify client certificates. Equivalent to the **CA** option above being unspecified.
|
|
|
|
**Note:** Incoming connections use unbuffered channels to broadcast events. If a connected sink becomes slow or disconnected, messages are dropped for that sink only, and the connection is closed.
|
|
|
|

You can use _dnstap_ more than once to define multiple taps. The following logs information including the
|
|
wire-format DNS message about client requests and responses to */tmp/dnstap.sock*,
|
|
and also sends client requests and responses without wire-format DNS messages to a remote FQDN.

You can also combine outgoing connections with incoming listeners:

~~~ txt
|
|
dnstap tcp://remote-collector.example.com:6000 full
|
|
dnstap listen tcp://127.0.0.1:6001 full

|
|
|
|
## Command Line Tool
|
|
|
|
Dnstap has a command line tool that can be used to inspect the logging. The tool can be found
|
|
at GitHub: <https://github.com/dnstap/golang-dnstap>. It's written in Go.
|
|
|
|
The following command listens on the given socket and decodes messages to stdout.
|
|
|
|
~~~ sh
|
|
$ dnstap -u /tmp/dnstap.sock
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
The following command listens on the given socket and saves message payloads to a binary dnstap-format log file.
|
|
|
|
~~~ sh
|
|
$ dnstap -u /tmp/dnstap.sock -w /tmp/test.dnstap
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Listen for dnstap messages on port 6000.
|
|
|
|
~~~ sh
|
|
$ dnstap -l 127.0.0.1:6000
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
## Using Dnstap in your plugin
|
|
|
|
In your setup function, collect and store a list of all *dnstap* plugins loaded in the config:
|
|
|
|
~~~ go
|
|
x := &ExamplePlugin{}
|
|
|
|
c.OnStartup(func() error {
|
|
if taph := dnsserver.GetConfig(c).Handler("dnstap"); taph != nil {
|
|
for tapPlugin, ok := taph.(*dnstap.Dnstap); ok; tapPlugin, ok = tapPlugin.Next.(*dnstap.Dnstap) {
|
|
x.tapPlugins = append(x.tapPlugins, tapPlugin)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
return nil
|
|
})
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
And then in your plugin:
|
|
|
|
~~~ go
|
|
import (
|
|
"github.com/coredns/coredns/plugin/dnstap/msg"
|
|
"github.com/coredns/coredns/request"
|
|
|
|
tap "github.com/dnstap/golang-dnstap"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func (x ExamplePlugin) ServeDNS(ctx context.Context, w dns.ResponseWriter, r *dns.Msg) (int, error) {
|
|
for _, tapPlugin := range x.tapPlugins {
|
|
q := new(msg.Msg)
|
|
msg.SetQueryTime(q, time.Now())
|
|
msg.SetQueryAddress(q, w.RemoteAddr())
|
|
if tapPlugin.IncludeRawMessage {
|
|
buf, _ := r.Pack() // r has been seen packed/unpacked before, this should not fail
|
|
q.QueryMessage = buf
|
|
}
|
|
msg.SetType(q, tap.Message_CLIENT_QUERY)
|
|
|
|
// if no metadata interpretation is needed, just send the message
|
|
tapPlugin.TapMessage(q)
|
|
|
|
// OR: to interpret the metadata in "extra" field, give more context info
|
|
tapPlugin.TapMessageWithMetadata(ctx, q, request.Request{W: w, Req: query})
|
|
}
|
|
// ...
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
