The server synthesizes a series of large responses via a CNAME chain when you look up that TXT record, designed to test your recursive server's ability to handle large responses. I'm getting similar failure behaviour from Google Public DNS that you're seeing in 9.12, but I'm not seeing it from my 9.11 recursive server (it works on the first try). ; <<>> DiG 9.11.2 <<>> IN TXT rs.dns-oarc.net @8.8.8.8 ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 63546 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 512 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;rs.dns-oarc.net.
