Oddly, it seems to be specific to AAAA; any other type request I send comes back NOERROR correctly. It is like somebody tried to handle AAAA "special" and screwed it up.I remember nytimes doing something like this for a while, I believe they said their GSLB was just not happy doing AAAA, or if not configured would display similar behaviour.
Thanks for reporting this. I passed it on to the corp-IT people and the issue appears to be fixed. The problem was that someone forgot to override the F5 default of *NOT* enabling a NODATA/NOERROR response for AAAA queries. I have no idea why an opt-in would be required for proper interoperability with RFC 1034 from 1987. Then again, I have zero experience with operating a load balancer appliance. ------ Andris
