DNS monitoring
from £1 per month

DNS monitoring

Your dns server is monitored from three locations. Each monitoring server visits each monitoring interval 24x7 at the same time as the other monitoring servers. From the results obtained ipPatrol determines whether your dns server is working and sends you sms, pager and email alerts as required.

Performance statistics (dns lookup time) is recorded and used on our online graphs and email reports to provide a performance overview of your dns server.

Detailed reports are sent on a regular basis as required containing details of outages, server availability, a graph depicting overall performance and a detailed performance analysis.
