1.2.3 and DNS
-
So I needed to run some test and be able to setup an override forward to an internal server on my flat network (on the same subnet). No domains.
For a while, it didn't appear that things were working. My quick test was to try and PING the hostname.domain.
Just by pure accident, I started one of these PINGs and then went off working on something else. I noticed that it started replying…when I really hadn't changed anything.
After a few tests, here's what I'm seeing.If I just PING hostname, instant response.
If I PING hostname.domain, it takes right at 15 sec. before I start seeing replies.Is there any reason I should expect this behavior to be normal?
