Module: XG-FIREWALL-MIB
OID (symbolic): XG-FIREWALL-MIB::dnsService

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: ServiceStatsType
Access: read-only
Description:
What is dnsService?
This OID reports the runtime status of the firewall's DNS service, using the shared ServiceStatsType enumeration (e.g. running(4), stopped(2), dead(6)). Admins check this when clients behind the firewall report DNS resolution failures, to rule out the appliance's own DNS process being down.
