DNS-DOT or DNS-REV protocols are used to collect RTT metrics on the LDNS. If there is DNS service running on the LDNS, RTT metrics should be collected successfully as expected. However if there is no DNS service on the LDNS, there should not be any RTT metrics collected. But BIG-IP still populates the RTT values giving users a "false positive" results.
RTT metrics are collected even though no response from the DNS service is present giving users wrong impression that there is.
DNS-DOT or DNS-REV protocols are used to collect RTT metrics on the LDNS and there is no DNS service running on the LDNS.
None
RTT metrics are collected only when the DNS service is present otherwise zero RTT values are returned.
