Import Hosts via rDNS #541

Open salsero opened 8 years ago

I am really not sure how this feature works:

"Resolve DNS names
Check reverse dns lookups for IP addresses that do not have hostname in database. (Activating this feature can significantly increase ip address pages loading time!) " It only resolves after entering each host individually, which is a mammoth task, if lots of ranges are in the DB.

It would be nice to be able to import hosts via rDNS. Maybe as job that could run over night.

Basically it's the option to make phpipam crawl through all ip ranges and do rDNS of each ip
