Hello Stanislas,
If I just want to forward specific queries towards certain servers, what is the easiest to do?
In bind this would look like
zone "site1.F5.com" {
type forward;
forward only;
forwarders {1.1.1.1 ; 2.2.2.2; };
};
zone "site353.example.com" {
type forward;
forward only;
forwarders {3.3.3.3 ; 5.5.4.4; };
};
zone "urgent911.example.net" {
type forward;
forward only;
forwarders {3.3.4.4 ; 4.4.1.1; };
};
Of course without too much interference on other config (DNS express, other GSLB, ...)
Or to ask the question different, you mention "◦if no pool member is available and fallback method is "return to DNS" the request is released to DNS server" => to which server it is released ...
thanks in advance for your answer.

Hi,
The answer is in my previous post
If No pool is assigned to the Listener and the Listener IP is a self IP (floating or not), Released to DNS requests are handled by local Bind
If Pool is assigned to the listener, the DNS request will be load balanced and forwarded to one pool member.
