NOT the ~3 secs in the VM-down case. > I don't know the answer here, but if this VM is critical path, maybe it > should be redundant/resilient? this it the process of getting there ... making sure i understand DoT + Forwarding, and it does what I "want". > Why do you want this cache in place? Is it performance, anonynimity, ?? for this setup, "de-Comcasting" the LAN's resolver traffic. so, anonymity, mostly. with a soupçon of lack of trust ... if i !forward from my LAN bind9 instance -- i.e., direct resolution, performance is good. arguably not as quick as a cached at VM's unbound result ... but need to prove that to myself. and that's true ... until the Comcast feed gets jinky. which happens, tho not terribly often. -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list.
