Internal DNS delegated zone not resolving
Internal DNS delegated zone not resolving
I have the same internal and external Delegated DNS Zone name
it is has 4 NS records:
I have created the same delegated zone in the internal dns under Mydomain.org
it is has 4 NS records:
from Internet, when I use DNS Lookup tools and enter a.Mydomain.org
it will resolve without issue
but inside the network if I enter: Nslookup a.Mydomain.org
I see: DNS request timed out several times.
Any idea why ?
Thank you

I checked Windows DNS server / Properties/ Forwarders tab.
I see Infoblox with their internal IP addresses there
I do not know if there is an extra step that Infoblox Admin needs to do from within infoblox to allow the delegated zone to proxy its DNS queries through infoblox.

One thing I may have not mentioned yet in my comments:
a.mydomain.org is a Delegated zone.
mydomain.org is a forward lookup zone owned by our Windows DNS
the Delegated zone a.mydomain.org has NS records pointing to Otherdomain.com
NS1.otherdomain.com
NS2.otherdomain.com
NS3.otherdomain.com
NS4.otherdomain.com
our internal Windows DC/DNS server forwarders tab, has Infoblox DNS Servers.
this is why I thought if you query a.Mydomain.org , the query will be sent to NS servers of Otherdomain.com and since those NS servers are on the internet, our Windows DC/DNS server will forward the query to Infoblox servers that are in the DMZ, and Infoblox will relay the query to Otherdomain.com DNS servers (ns1, ns2, ns3, ns4)
-- there is another doubt that I have, which is:
since Mydomain.org is owned by our Windows DC/DNS Server, and a.Mydomain.org even if it is Delegated zone, but the name space of it makes it sub-domain (a.Mydomain.org), will that be an issue? or since a.Mydomain.org has the NS servers specified NSx.otherdomain,com it will be fine ?

Conditional forwarder for some reason started working.

I found out, that Delegation to outside is blocked through firewall
what I am trying is:
Internal Windows DNS----Infoblox-----Custom
The sub-zone is delegated from internal Windows DNS to Customer.
I need to forward the DNS request to infoblox, but I do not how it is done.
