Hi

Apologies for not elaborating it further, so I wanted to know why we are
seeing different behavior what is expected, I was wondering if there is
some additional configuration which I am missing. Expected Behavior which I
think is even though one of the upstream server is down, dnsmasq should get
the results from other two upstream servers
