I¹ve found through many years in the majority of cases you can specify 2, 3, 4 fall back DNS servers but rarely in practise does the DNS request ever get passed to the 2nd, 3rd etc. Very frustrating but the reality in the domestic market and a lot of the business market.
I¹ll throw this question to a couple of people who are at the top of tech DNS tree and see what they have to say. Besides from buy their product ;-) Regards, Chris Hurley BE (Elec) Signal Manager ****************************************************** Dragon Rail Pty Ltd Phone: 1300 730 531 74 Allanfield Crescent Boronia, 3155 Victoria Australia ****************************************************** On 5/07/2017, 7:11 PM, "AusNOG on behalf of Jason Leschnik" <ausnog-boun...@lists.ausnog.net on behalf of ja...@leschnik.me> wrote: >What's generally the best practice for setting home resolvers?
