If you see that, DNS is working correctly.
### Troubleshooting Tips
If the nslookup command fails, check the following:
#### Check the local DNS configuration first
Take a look inside the resolv.conf file. (See "Inheriting DNS from the node" and "Known issues" below for more information)
```
cat /etc/resolv.conf
```
Verify that the search path and name server are set up like the following (note that seach path may vary for different cloud providers):
```
search default.svc.cluster.local svc.cluster.local cluster.local google.internal c.gce_project_id.internal
nameserver 10.0.0.10
options ndots:5
```
#### Quick diagnosis
Errors such as the following indicate a problem with the kube-dns add-on or associated Services:
```
$ kubectl exec busybox -- nslookup kubernetes.default
Server: 10.0.0.10
Address 1: 10.0.0.10
nslookup: can't resolve 'kubernetes.default'
```
or
```
$ kubectl exec busybox -- nslookup kubernetes.default
Server: 10.0.0.10
Address 1: 10.0.0.10 kube-dns.kube-system.svc.cluster.local
nslookup: can't resolve 'kubernetes.default'
```
#### Check if the DNS pod is running
Use the kubectl get pods command to verify that the DNS pod is running.
```
kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns
```
You should see something like:
```
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
...
kube-dns-v19-ezo1y 3/3 Running 0 1h
...
```
If you see that no pod is running or that the pod has failed/completed, the dns add-on may not be deployed by default in your current environment and you will have to deploy it manually.
#### Check for Errors in the DNS pod
Use `kubectl logs` command to see logs for the DNS daemons.
```
kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c kubedns
kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c dnsmasq
kubectl logs --namespace=kube-system $(kubectl get pods --namespace=kube-system -l k8s-app=kube-dns -o name) -c healthz
```
See if there is any suspicious log. W, E, F letter at the beginning represent Warning, Error and Failure. Please search for entries that have these as the logging level and use [kubernetes issues](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues) to report unexpected errors.
#### Is dns service up?
Verify that the DNS service is up by using the `kubectl get service` command.
```
kubectl get svc --namespace=kube-system
```
You should see:
```
NAME CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
...
kube-dns 10.0.0.10 <none> 53/UDP,53/TCP 1h
...
```
If you have created the service or in the case it should be created by default but it does not appear, see this [debugging services page](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/debugging-services/) for more information.
#### Are dns endpoints exposed?
You can verify that dns endpoints are exposed by using the `kubectl get endpoints` command.
```
kubectl get ep kube-dns --namespace=kube-system
```
You should see something like:
```
NAME ENDPOINTS AGE
kube-dns 10.180.3.17:53,10.180.3.17:53 1h
```
If you do not see the endpoints, see endpoints section in the [debugging services documentation](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/debugging-services/).

The Kubernetes cluster DNS server (based off the [SkyDNS](https://github.com/skynetservices/skydns) library)
supports forward lookups (A records), service lookups (SRV records) and reverse IP address lookups (PTR records).
## Inheriting DNS from the node
When running a pod, kubelet will prepend the cluster DNS server and search
paths to the node's own DNS settings. If the node is able to resolve DNS names
specific to the larger environment, pods should be able to, also. See "Known
issues" below for a caveat.
If you don't want this, or if you want a different DNS config for pods, you can
use the kubelet's `--resolv-conf` flag. Setting it to "" means that pods will
not inherit DNS. Setting it to a valid file path means that kubelet will use
this file instead of `/etc/resolv.conf` for DNS inheritance.
## Known issues
Kubernetes installs do not configure the nodes' resolv.conf files to use the
cluster DNS by default, because that process is inherently distro-specific.
This should probably be implemented eventually.
Linux's libc is impossibly stuck ([see this bug from
2005](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=168253)) with limits of just
3 DNS `nameserver` records and 6 DNS `search` records. Kubernetes needs to
consume 1 `nameserver` record and 3 `search` records. This means that if a
local installation already uses 3 `nameserver`s or uses more than 3 `search`es,
some of those settings will be lost. As a partial workaround, the node can run
`dnsmasq` which will provide more `nameserver` entries, but not more `search`
entries. You can also use kubelet's `--resolv-conf` flag.
If you are using Alpine version 3.3 or earlier as your base image, dns may not
work properly owing to a known issue with Alpine. Check [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/30215)
for more information.

### kubenet
The Linux-only kubenet plugin provides functionality similar to the `--configure-cbr0` kubelet command-line option. It creates a Linux bridge named `cbr0` and creates a veth pair for each pod with the host end of each pair connected to `cbr0`. The pod end of the pair is assigned an IP address allocated from a range assigned to the node either through configuration or by the controller-manager. `cbr0` is assigned an MTU matching the smallest MTU of an enabled normal interface on the host. The kubenet plugin is currently mutually exclusive with, and will eventually replace, the --configure-cbr0 option. It is also currently incompatible with the flannel experimental overlay.
Kubenet is a very basic, simple network plugin, on Linux only. It does not, of itself, implement more advanced features like cross-node networking or network policy. It is typically used together with a cloud provider that sets up routing rules for communication between nodes, or in single-node environments.
