Hi, Thanks for explanation. Still not clear :-(. Assuming we have some authoritative bind server in internal VLAN. This is set to allow zone transfer from BIG-IP Self IP (10.10.10.2).

 

Then zone transfer is triggered, by what BIG-IP object - Nameserver (BIG-IP1)?

 

If so how BIG-IP1 know to which internal bind server connect? From NS records created in Zone (DNS > Zones > ZoneRunner > Zone List)?

 

Or maybe BIG-IP1 is working as authoritative hidden master (not some external bind srv on internal VLAN) that is source for zone transfer to DNSExpress?

 

Sorry for dumb questions but I am really lost :-(
