SkyDNS is used as internal DNS server for k8s cluster, and use DNS library : https://github.com/miekg/dns. skydns-kubeapi will monitor the services in k8s cluster,when the service is created and has been assigned with external ips, the user(docker)in cluster can access the service with the domain. When the domain has multiple ips, the skydns will choose one actived for the user randomly, it seems like a load balancer. Also the skydns offer "session persistence", that means we query one domain from one user ip, then the user access the domain later, the user will get the same service ip.
skydns: the main service to offer DNS query.skydns-kubeapi: monitor the changes of k8s services, and record the change in the etcd. It offered the original data for skydns, meanwhille skydns-kubeapi offers the RESTful api for users to maintain domain records.skydns-apicmd: it is a shell cmd for user to query\update domain record, it is based on skydns-kubeapi.
Then get and compile SkyDNS:
go get github.com/ipdcode/skydns
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ipdcode/skydns
go build -v
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ipdcode/skydns/skydns-kubeapi
go build -v

if the domain have more than one ip, skydns will return a radom one.

If the domain may have multiple ips, then dns-scanner is used to monitor the ips behand the domain.
When the service is not reachable, dns-scanner will change the status of the ip. And the skydns will monitor the ip status,
when it comes down, skydns will choose a good one.

we query the domain cctv2.skydns.local form skydns we get the ip 192.168.10.3, then we shut down the service, we query the domain again
we get the ip 192.168.10.1.
