our parent org, owns the parent zone, and this zone is delegated from there to a load balancer onsite. which is authoritative. but, the query path for a normal query crosses the internet gateway because thats where the parent is. ( very short TTL ).
any internet connection issue causes issues, so i am going to put a forward zone directly from my NS to the load balancer which is auth for the zone. that way, if the internet gateway is down or has issues the application will still function. -Nex6 On Nov 7, 2014, at 1:04 PM, Chris Buxton <cli...@buxtonfamily.us> wrote: > On Nov 7, 2014, at 11:35 AM, Nex6|Bill <n6gh...@yahoo.com> wrote: >> >> I am going to be adding a type forward zone for an important zone. how can >> i test that the forward is working correctly? if i do a dig against the NS >> the record will return no matter if its auth or fwd zone. > > Will your server be receiving recursive or iterative queries (rd=1 or rd=0) > for the zone?
