DNS queries from two internal DNS servers are being load balanced to external DNS Servers via a Virtual

Server on a BIG-P device. The DNS queries originate from 192.168.101.100 and 192.168.101.200 and

target 192.168.21.50

All DNS queries destined for the external DNS Servers fail

A might help, but I still think C is more direct.

But what about A? DNS-OPTIMIZED could help too.

Agreed! DNS uses UDP, so changing the protocol makes sense.

Why would we need to change the type to HTTP? That seems off.

Haha, who would choose B) Type to Performance (HTTP) for a DNS issue? That's just silly.

D) Source Address to 192.168.101.0/24 is an interesting choice, but it doesn't seem to address the issue directly.

I think the right answer might be to set the Protocol to UDP since DNS typically uses that, but I could be wrong.

I’m a bit confused about whether changing the Source Address would actually help. Wouldn’t that just affect routing?

This question feels familiar; I think we practiced a similar one where we had to adjust the protocol settings for DNS traffic.

I remember something about DNS queries needing to use UDP, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only thing we need to change here.

I'm not sure about this one. There are a few different options that could potentially fix the issue. I think I'll need to review the BIG-IP configuration and DNS troubleshooting steps to determine the best approach.

I'm pretty confident that the answer is A) Protocol Profile (Client) to DNS-OPTIMZED. The question states that the DNS queries are being load balanced, so we likely need to optimize the protocol profile for DNS traffic on the Virtual Server.

Hmm, this seems tricky. I'm leaning towards D) Source Address to 192.168.101.0/24. Since the queries are originating from two specific IP addresses, we might need to update the source address on the Virtual Server to match that range.

C) Protocol to UDP is the correct answer. DNS uses UDP for standard queries.

I'm a bit confused on this one. The question mentions a Virtual Server on a BIG-IP device, so I'm not sure if the protocol change is the right approach. Maybe we need to look at the Virtual Server configuration more closely.

I think the answer is C) Protocol to UDP. The question mentions that the DNS queries are failing, so the protocol needs to be changed to UDP since DNS typically uses UDP.
