Is there an ETA for integrating Micetro DNS services and Cloudflare? Thanks,Mark 

Join Cisco to learn about how Micetro works in Meraki environments. In this webinar, you’ll hear:Relatable stories from the field Practical insights on simplifying operations and maximizing ROI Clear answers to common branch networking challengesWhether you manage a handful of sites or thousands, see how Cisco and BlueCat together create a branch networking solution that’s ready for anything.   

We're looking to install another site with recursive and authoritative DNS. I’ve done some looking into the multi-primary function though unsure if this is what we're looking for. The goal is to have this site’s DNS/DHCP intact in a disaster scenario where the primary data center is down or unreachable. I am only finding instructions on how to setup multi-primary roles on new zones without existing primary roles. In my attempt to test this I was not able to use or add a new multi-primary role to existing zone as it complains there is already a primary role. Looks like you would have to remove the existing primary role to add the new role, though not sure of the impact here.Can a multi-primary DNS setup function if the BAM is unreachable? How do you install multi-primary roles on existing zones with little or no impact to clients? 

We have run into a situation where our virtual compute provisioning stack is experiencing duplicate IP assignments from Bluecat.  They are POSTing to the v2 API endpoint /api/v2/networks/{collection}/addresses without specifying an address, allowing BAM to allocate the next available.  When multiple requests are submitted in quick succession (within the same second) for the same network, BAM sometimes returns the same IP to both requests with an HTTP 201 code, causing the provisioning automation to assign the same IP to multiple VMs.Other than single-threading the provisioning (which is problematic if different stacks of provisioning automation are provisioning on the same networks) - are there any thoughts of how to avoid this and has anyone else run into it?  This is supposedly confirmed as a defect and there was originally a recommendation to use the v1 assignNextAvailableIP4Address call instead - but when I pushed for assurance that this call would not suffer from the same suscepti

I’ve not had any success in using the compressed files like “restv2-diagnostics.log.9.gz”. The data is nothing like the v1 logs. It looks as though every line that is in the normal file has a folder named after it and another subfolder resulting in thousands of folders and subfolders with an empty file. It’s not usable. Has anyone figured this out?

I would be interested in how people are using UDLs in real life.  I have not used them yet, but it seems like I probably should somewhere.

Hi all, I am very excited to share our next Layer 8 will be on Wednesday, October 29th at 11EDT Topic: Metrics — Must-Have or LuxuryWe’d love to hear from practitioners with different environments, scales, and challenges. Whether you’re managing a global deployment or a lean regional network, your perspective can help shape what the community sees as “essential DDI visibility.”🗓 Date: Wednesday, October 29th🕓Time: 11:00 - 12:00 EDT Register: https://events.zoom.us/ev/Au2uBTQEwR2gA3Ys7iVgNq1BIRhxw_iHRB3K-dJTafAO9nGjGn_R~Agk8aqyjyppMZMJEDdlK-ChohBdkl7StSQdOJJCkhBXBoFt0sHEhW-Hnuw If you have any questions let me know.
