DNS synchronization

in DNS, DHCP, IPAM (DDI)

Hello,

We have synchronization problems between our Microsoft and Infoblox servers, in both directions nothing happens during any modification.

We have our dedicated user for this service in the DNSAdmins group with special permissions but not full control because it is too permissive for our security service.

Ports 135 and 445 are open on the firewall, no trace of blocked flows inside.

If I rely on the Infoblox documentation, DHCP uses simple RPC requests, while DNS is apparently more complicated than that.

However, I don't see any mention of WMI or DCOM authorization in the documentation.

But, in a company with a huge amount of security recommendations, it is difficult to find the source of the problem without knowing the real Infoblox DNS synchronization process.

Today, i need to know how DNS synchronization works between Infoblox and a Microsoft server specifically.

Does it use WMI? DCOM? If anyone tell me that Infoblox uses it, then the source of the problem may be there.

Thanks

    What error are you seeing in NIOS during synchronization failure? MS_RPC_SCMR_DNS_STATUS?

    Which version of Microsoft server?
