So I’ve got a Consul cluster running for service discovery on a set of servers, some of which have public IP addresses. On some of these nodes I want to run Traefik (dynamically registered), which are registered on tfk.service.consul
which holds a number of A and AAAA records. I want my address tfk.example.com
to point at those A-records without revealing the consul address.
How would I do this?
Some application maps internal A-records to public A-records.
public | internal / xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
tfk.example.com -- | -- tfk.service.consul -- yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
| \ zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
Public DNS resolvers never see the consul query.
public / xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
tfk.example.com -- yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
\ zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
I know I could use consul-template
for this purpose by rendering config files to bind or similar, but I was wondering if there was some way to do this via DNS like some kind of bridge application.

What you want is bind views. You can configure bind to resolve different views for different segments allowing you to have the same (sub) domains to different ips
