DNS RESOLUTION ISSUE IN LEGACY DNS
HI
i have two locations in my company let us say X and Y. both locations we have one Ad integrated dns and one legacy dns(stand alone dns for internal name resoultion) both locations are connected using mpls .we need to have ad +dns redundany in both
placess if failover happenns
our clients in both location preffedrd dns is ADdns and alternate Dns is legacy dns .if our ADdns fail we need to work client by authenricating ADdns in remote location .for this we have made a forwarder in legacy dns to other location ADadns .both Ad are
replica servers
but when assume X location ADdns fails name resoultion not happening . i mean when we ping domian name it is trying to reach x locations ADserver (failed one) .it is not forwarding traffic through legacy dns to reach other locaton DC

Your question is absolutely not related to Windows 7 but to an unknown
dns-server product. Without telling us, what type of other DNS server
you use, nobody can help you. I don't know, if your other DNS server is
able to test the availability of an ip-address via ping before handing
out the address to the client, but that would probably be the way to go.
