Issue
- Name resolution by Identity Router is failing inconsistently.
- Running nslookup fails when not specifying nameserver, but may succeed if a particular nameserver is specified.
- If the Identity Router is configured to communicate with Authentication Manager there may be errors in the symplified.log similar to:
Unable to resolve the Host:<AM_FULLY_QUALIFIED_HOSTNAME>, ignoring it
Note: An IDR to Authentication Manager test may also fail under these conditions.
