BIND : Set SPF record2024/11/01 |
Set up a Sender Policy Framework (SPF) record to verify the validity of the domain from which the email is sent.
This example is based on the environment that the [srv.world] domain uses the network range [172.16.0.80/29]. |
|
[1] | Add a TXT record to the zone file that contains the target domain name and set SPF there. |
[root@dlp ~]#
vi /var/named/srv.world.wan $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA dlp.srv.world. root.srv.world. ( ;; when updating a zone file, update the serial number as well 2024110104 ;Serial 3600 ;Refresh 1800 ;Retry 604800 ;Expire 86400 ;Minimum TTL ) IN NS dlp.srv.world. IN A 172.16.0.82 IN MX 10 dlp.srv.world. ;; add SPF settings to a TXT record ;; specify the host to use as the mail server IN TXT "v=spf1 +ip4:172.16.0.82 -all" dlp IN A 172.16.0.82 www IN A 172.16.0.83[root@dlp ~]# rndc reload |
[2] | This is the basic description of SPF. |
;; the TXT record itself can have multiple lines, ;; but in SPF settings, only one TXT record can be set for one domain name ;; [v=spf1] ⇒ it means SPF version ;; [+ip4] ⇒ specify IPv4 addresses ;; [+ip6] ⇒ specify IPv6 addresses ;; [+] ⇒ verify your domain's mail server ;; * [+] is optional ;; * if there is no [+] or [-], the [+] is considered to be omitted ;; [-] ⇒ do not authenticate as a mail server for the domain ;; [~] ⇒ deemed to be potentially fake but delivered anyway ;; if there are multiple mail servers, specify them with a space separator IN TXT "v=spf1 +ip4:172.16.0.82 +ip4:172.16.0.83 -all" ;; for the case of specifying the host name of the mail server ;; * host name must be specified as a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) IN TXT "v=spf1 +a:dlp.srv.world +a:www.srv.world -all" ;; for the case of setting only the specified host in the MX record IN TXT "v=spf1 +mx -all" ;; for the case of describing the network containing hosts that may send email using the CIDR method ;; * be careful, if you specify too broad a range, the SPF record will be meaningless IN TXT "v=spf1 +ip4:172.16.0.80/29 -all" ;; for example, if you use a subdomain such as [serverworld@dlp.srv.world] as an email address, ;; set it for the subdomain dlp IN TXT "v=spf1 +ip4:172.16.0.82 -all" ;; for example, if your domain is only used as a web server and does not send email at all, ;; you can declare this with the following settings IN TXT "v=spf1 -all" ;; for example, if you want to include the same SPF record as the one set for another domain [server.education], ;; set it like follows IN TXT "v=spf1 +include:server.education -all" |

The following website allows you to check the contents of the SPF record you have set, so we recommend that you check it. If there are no problems with the SPF record settings, when you send an email to Gmail or others from the mail server of the configured domain, [SPF: PASS] will be displayed in the header. |
