.SH "NAME"
\fIsecondary\fR \- enables serving a zone retrieved from a primary server\.
.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
With \fIsecondary\fR you can transfer (via AXFR) a zone from another server\. The retrieved zone is \fInot committed\fR to disk (a violation of the RFC)\. This means restarting CoreDNS will cause it to retrieve all secondary zones\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
secondary [ZONES\.\.\.]
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBZONES\fR zones it should be authoritative for\. If empty, the zones from the configuration block are used\. Note that without a remote address to \fIget\fR the zone from, the above is not that useful\.
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
A working syntax would be:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
secondary [zones\.\.\.] {
transfer from ADDRESS
transfer to ADDRESS
upstream ADDRESS\.\.\.
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBtransfer from\fR specifies from which address to fetch the zone\. It can be specified multiple times; if one does not work, another will be tried\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBtransfer to\fR can be enabled to allow this secondary zone to be transferred again\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBupstream\fR defines upstream resolvers to be used resolve external names found (think CNAMEs) pointing to external names\. This is only really useful when CoreDNS is configured as a proxy, for normal authoritative serving you don\'t need \fIor\fR want to use this\. \fBADDRESS\fR can be an IP address, and IP:port or a string pointing to a file that is structured as /etc/resolv\.conf\.
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
Transfer \fBexample\.org\fR from 10\.0\.1\.1, and if that fails try 10\.1\.2\.1\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
example\.org {
secondary {
transfer from 10\.0\.1\.1
transfer from 10\.1\.2\.1
}
}
.
.fi

.IP "" 0

Or re\-export the retrieved zone to other secondaries\.
.
.IP "" 4

.nf
\&\. {
secondary example\.net {
transfer from 10\.1\.2\.1
transfer to *
}
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SH "BUGS"
Only AXFR is supported and the retrieved zone is not committed to disk\.
