Last Modified: May 29, 2024

Fixed In:
15.1.0, 15.0.1.3, 14.1.2.5, 13.1.3.2

Opened: Apr 12, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When probing DNS Path, the metric round trip time (RTT) is not set correctly if the collection protocols used are NDS_DOT or DNS_REV. The problem occurs only if the Path involves an IPv6 address; IPv4 address works fine.

Impact

RTT metric is not set at all.

Conditions

-- Path involves IPv6 addresses. -- Collection protocol used is either DNS_DOT or DNS_REV.

Workaround

Use collection protocols - ICMP instead.

Fix Information

The problem for both collection protocols - DNS_DOT and DNS_REV no longer occurs, and the RTT is set correctly.
