[c-nsp] tools.cisco.com - DNS issues ?

[Brandon Applegate]

Seeing this from multiple places.  I get SERVFAIL from my bind boxes, but 
I can poke at it manually with dig and I can get the A record for tools 
sometimes.  It seems like after the 20 second TTL expires it's busted 
again.

I will start looking into local issues, but as I see this from 2 seperate 
unlrelated networks I wanted to see if anyone else can confirm/deny/add 
input.  Thanks in advance.

PS: Before I hit send, I looked in my home resolver's log and see:

May 25 11:57:54 ice named[28394]: error (unexpected RCODE SERVFAIL) resolving 'tools.cisco.com/A/IN': 72.163.4.28#53
May 25 11:57:55 ice named[28394]: error (unexpected RCODE SERVFAIL) resolving 'tools.cisco.com/A/IN': 64.102.246.5#53
May 25 11:57:55 ice named[28394]: error (unexpected RCODE SERVFAIL) resolving 'tools.cisco.com/A/IN': 128.107.227.197#53

Seems like tools.cisco.com is delegated out to 4 GSSes.  These guys 
burping today maybe ?  Seems like one of them is completely unreachable, 
the other 3 threw SERVFAIL as logged above.
