Is it possible to extract the DNS responses from Microsoft DNS Server Analytical logs (Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server/Analytical)? The logs contain a field called "PacketData" in the EventData section of the event, but so far I have unable to extract anything useful from the PacketData field.










share|improve this question






















  • Why do you want to track responses? You could just send a request to see the same answer. As of today, there is no way to extract given responses (aka "how many time google.com has been requested and by whom").

There are two places to find Windows DNS server logs - first, as you mentioned is via the DNS debug log file. There is also data available via Windows ETW Providers (Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service, Microsoft-Windows-DNSServer). I've used something like Microsoft Message Analyzer to do an event trace session, also a log collector NXLog (note: am involved in that project) to collect event trace data from the ETW Provider and write these out to JSON.



I know for sure that the PacketData field is found when you do an ETW trace of the Microsoft-Windows-DNSServer ETW Provider. See below for an excerpt using NXLog im_etw module with the JSON output.
