Technitium DNS Server API Documentation

Technitium DNS Server provides a HTTP API which is used by the web console to perform all actions. Thus any action that the web console does can be performed using this API from your own applications.

The URL in the documentation uses localhost and port 5380. You should use the hostname/IP address and port that is specific to your DNS server instance.

API Response Format

The HTTP API returns a JSON formatted response for all requests. The JSON object returned contains status property which indicate if the request was successful.

The status property can have following values:

  • ok: This indicates that the call was successful.
  • error: This response tells the call failed and provides additional properties that provide details about the error.
  • invalid-token: When a session has expired or an invalid token was provided this response is received.

A successful response will look as shown below. Note that there will be other properties in the response which are specific to the request that was made.

{
	"status": "ok"
}

In case of errors, the response will look as shown below. The errorMessage property can be shown in the UI to the user while the other two properties are useful for debugging.

{
	"status": "error",
	"errorMessage": "error message",
	"stackTrace": "application stack trace",
	"innerErrorMessage": "inner exception message"
}

Name Server Address Format

The DNS server uses a specific text format to define the name server address to allow specifying multiple parameters like the domain name, IP address, port or URL. This format is used in the web console as well as in this API. It is used to specify forwarder address in DNS settings, conditional forwarder zone's FWD record, or the server address in DNS Client resolve query API calls.

  • A name server address with just an IP address is specified just as its string literal with optional port number is as shown: 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8:53. When port is not specified, the default port number for the selected DNS transport protocol is used.
  • A name server address with just a domain name is specified similarly as its string literal with optional port number is as shown: dns.quad9.net:853 or cloudflare-dns.com. When port is not specified, the default port number for the selected DNS transport protocol is used.
  • A combination of domain name and IP address together with optional port number is as shown: cloudflare-dns.com (1.1.1.1), dns.quad9.net (9.9.9.9:853) or dns.quad9.net:853 (9.9.9.9). Here, the domain name (with optional port number) is specified and the IP address (with optional port number) is specified in a round bracket. When port is not specified, the default port number for the selected DNS transport protocol is used. This allows the DNS server to use the specified IP address instead of trying to resolve it separately.
  • A name server address that specifies a DNS-over-HTTPS URL is specified just as its string literal is as shown: https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query
  • A combination of DNS-over-HTTPS URL and IP address together is as shown: https://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query (1.1.1.1). Here, the IP address of the domain name in the URL is specified in the round brackets. This allows the DNS server to use the specified IP address instead of trying to resolve it separately.
  • IPv6 addresses must always be enclosed in square brackets as shown: cloudflare-dns.com ([2606:4700:4700::1111]:853) or [2606:4700:4700::1111]

Authentication API Calls

These API calls allow to login or logout using credentials. Once logged in, a session token is returned which MUST be used with all other API calls.

Login

This call authenticates with the server and generates a session token to be used for subsequent API calls. The session token expires in 30 minutes from the last API call.

URL: http://localhost:5380/api/login?user=admin&pass=admin

WHERE:

  • user: The username. The built-in administrator username on the DNS server is admin.
  • pass: The password for the user. The default password for admin user is admin.

WARNING: It is highly recommended to change the password on first use to avoid security related issues.

RESPONSE:

{
	"status": "ok",
	"token": "932b2a3495852c15af01598f62563ae534460388b6a370bfbbb8bb6094b698e9"
}

WHERE:

  • token: Is the session token generated that MUST be used with all subsequent API calls.

Logout

This call ends the session generated by the login call. The token generated by the login call would no longer be valid after calling logout.

URL: http://localhost:5380/api/logout?token=932b2a3495852c15af01598f62563ae534460388b6a370bfbbb8bb6094b698e9

WHERE:

  • token: The session token generated by the login call.

RESPONSE:

{
	"status": "ok"
}

Change Password

This call allows changing the password for the current logged in user.

NOTE: It is highly recommended to change the admin user password on first use to avoid security related issues.

URL: http://localhost:5380/api/changePassword?token=x&pass=password

WHERE:

  • token: The session token generated by the login call.
  • pass: The new password for the currently logged in user.

RESPONSE:

{
	"status": "ok"
}

  • newName (optional): The new name of the DHCP scope to rename an existing scope.
  • startingAddress (optional): The starting IP address of the DHCP scope. This parameter is required when creating a new scope.
  • endingAddress (optional): The ending IP address of the DHCP scope. This parameter is required when creating a new scope.
  • subnetMask (optional): The subnet mask of the network. This parameter is required when creating a new scope.

  • leaseTimeMinutes (optional): The lease time in number of minutes.
  • offerDelayTime (optional): The time duration in milli seconds that the DHCP server delays sending an DHCPOFFER message.

  • pingCheckTimeout (optional): The timeout interval to wait for an ping reply.
  • pingCheckRetries (optional): The maximum number of ping requests to try.
  • domainName (optional): The domain name to be used by this network. The DHCP server automatically adds forward and reverse DNS entries for each IP address allocations when domain name is configured.
  • dnsTtl (optional): The TTL value used for forward and reverse DNS records.
  • serverAddress (optional): The bootstrap TFTP server IP address to be used by the clients. If not specified, the DHCP server's IP address is used.

  • bootFileName (optional): The boot file name stored on the bootstrap TFTP server to be used by the clients.
  • routerAddress (optional): The default gateway or router IP address to be used by the clients.
  • useThisDnsServer (optional): Tells the DHCP server to use this DNS server's IP address to configure the DNS Servers DHCP option for clients.
  • dnsServers (optional): A comma separated list of DNS server IP addresses to be used by the clients. This parameter is ignored when useThisDnsServer is set to true.
  • winsServers (optional): A comma separated list of NBNS/WINS server IP addresses to be used by the clients.
  • ntpServers (optional): A comma separated list of Network Time Protocol (NTP) server IP addresses to be used by the clients.
  • staticRoutes (optional): A | separated list of static routes in format {destination network address}|{subnet mask}|{router/gateway address} to be used by the clients for accessing specified destination networks.
  • vendorInfo (optional): A | separated list of vendor information in format {vendor class identifier}|{vendor specific information} where {vendor specific information} is a colon separated hex string.
  • exclusions (optional): A | separated list of IP address range in format {starting address}|{ending address} that must be excluded or not assigned dynamically to any client by the DHCP server.
  • reservedLeases (optional): A | separated list of reserved IP addresses in format {host name}|{MAC address}|{reserved IP address}|{comments} to be assigned to specific clients based on their MAC address.
  • allowOnlyReservedLeases (optional): Set this parameter to true to stop dynamic IP address allocation and allocate only reserved IP addresses.
