@Piotr, thanks for the question. To clarify what my use case is, I am using an old off box bind server to perform a zone transfer with ZoneRunner on the BIG-IP. ZoneRunner is the BIG-IP's on box bind.

As for the name server, I am simply configuring that to accept zone transfers from the on box bind to DNSExpress. The last screenshot shows a log that stats successful zone transfer from 127.0.0.1 which is the transfer from ZoneRunner to DNSExpress. Hope this helps.
