When I first installed these DNS servers a couple years ago, EDNS was an issue, at that time I disabled EDNS. But just in case it somehow got unset, I reran the command. The same issue still exists. Great suggestion, thanks! Unfortunately, I'm still stumped.

Hello,<br />
<br />
We have Microsoft 2008 dns servers and we are having an issue querying a few sites. I'm wondering how the sites DNS may be setup. Our servers query root servers, we do not forward requests.<br />
<br />
One of the sites we have an issue with is network4g.verizonwireless.<wbr />com<br />
<br />
If I nslookup this through my Win2k8 DNS, I get a &quot;server failed&quot; error.<br />
<br />
If I nslookup this by attaching on to Google's 8.8.8.8 DNS server, everything queries fine.<br />
<br />
Can anyone else replicate this? Anyone have a guess as to what the issue is?<br />
<br />
From what I can tell, network4g.verizonwireless.<wbr />com has multiple CNAME records and finally lands on an akamai name.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help!<br />

MS Server 2008 R2 DNS Server Query Issue

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries, organized in abstraction layers, traditionally called "Link," "Internet," "Transport" and "Application”. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet. IP defines packet structures that encapsulate the data to be delivered. It also defines addressing methods that are used to label the datagram with source and destination information.
