DCDIAG Failing DNSBASIC Test

I have 3 DNS/DC servers. When I run dcdiag /TestNS /e /v all are failing
the basic connectivity test back to one server. Meaning 2 of 3 communicate,
but fail to the 3rd. I posted the result table from all 3 servers below.

This is the result from MKS00W01

Summary of DNS test results:

Hello tkutil,

Let's start with an unedited ipconfig /all from all 3 servers to exclude
DNS configuration as a problem.

Hi tkutil,

The ipconfigs look good.

Are all DNS servers configured with a Forwarder?

Do you have a reverse zone created for your subnets?

Any event log errors?

I have all three DNS servers setup with identical forwarders. I am not sure
if this is proper? I have seen articles concerning split brain DNS, which I
gathered has one forwarder and subordinate DNS point to that DNS. I do get
errors about some repeated event too many times. I don't remember exactly
what the event ID was. I l cleared all of my events and restarted DNS, but no
new error showed up. According to DCDIAG it looks like MKS00W01 is the
problem DNS since the others fail the BASC test to that server.

That's fine to use identical Forwarders. If all DC/DNS are identical, I
would rather Forward all to an ISP's, rather than to a common one
internally, otherwise the resolution will be performing additional steps.

Is there any firewall rules blocking UDP and/or TCP 53 to the outside and
back in (established)?

Ace

I have each DNS server forwarding to the internet, plus other sister
companies with internal IP addresses. I am not certain on the firewall
blocking port 53, but I was assuming the test was testing connectivity
between the AD/DNS servers?
