This might be caused by a Firewall or other middlebox that truncates the large answer containing the NS record set for this domain. I see the same if I try to fetch the delegation NS records from the parent domain (microsoft.com) for partners.extranet.microsoft.com: # dig @ns1.msft.net. partners.extranet.microsoft.com ns ; <<>> DiG 9.9.1-P1 <<>> ns @ns1.msft.net. partners.extranet.microsoft.com ; (2 servers found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: FORMERR, id: 30679 ;; flags: qr rd ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; WARNING: recursion requested but not available ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;partners.extranet.microsoft.com.
