Automatically name resolutionTop

Trisul comes with a sophisticated way to resolve keys automatically in the background. This works magically by only resolving those keys which are likely to be “interesting”. The process is designed to place as little load on your DNS servers as possible.

How to enable automatic name resolution

1. Enable Automatically resolve top IPs option.

Once enabled wait for about 10-15 minutes for hostnames to start appearing in your UI.

Troubleshooting

If for some reason you are not able to see hostnames in Trisul, try these steps.

1. Check if there are any errors in the log. Go to Admin → View Logs → Background Tasks Log
2. Check if crontab is enabled. Type crontab -l to check entries
3. Check if DNS works, click on any IP to bring up key dashboard, then click on Resolve
