Set the TTL to a non-zero value to get a more realistic test. > Thing 1. DNS query number is larger than response number between > traffic generator and DNS1 . About 15% traffic are dropped by DNS1 . Are you hammering the same qname or a small number of qnames? If so I would expect the server to drop queries while it is recursing - look at the documentation for max-clients-per-query. > Thing 2.
