Abstract
A method and a system for creating Internet Protocol address based network policies (IPPs) by using domain name based network policies (DNNTPs) is disclosed. The DNNTPs are stored in a second device, and are used for enforcing IPPs at a first device. The first device retrieves one or more DNNTPs from the second device and monitors network traffic for Domain Name System (DNS) look-up reply. When a network device receives a record Domain Name System look-up reply, the network device identifies one or more Internet Protocol addresses of one or more host names specified in the address record Domain Name System look-up reply, then determine whether the one or more host names contain a domain name used in one or more DNNTPs and create one or more IPPs.
