DNS Load Balancing (Issue with Round Robin Algorithm)

Morphius

Hi

I'm having some issues with DNS-Load Balncing. I'm using Thunder 3030s (ADC) right now and i'm on a beginner level. The configurations are quite simple (L-4).
We need to load balance Port-53 Queries between 2 Real Servers. The issue that i'm having is that, when the VIP is hit. The request terminates on both Real Servers at a same time inspite of ROUND ROBIN STRICT or ROUND ROBIN Algorithm.

Following are the current configurations. It would be great if i can get some guidance concerning to this.

i am also suffering from the same issue when i test DNS(VIP) using nslookup
against single query 4 hits/connection are established on VIP.
I dont exactly know the issue right now. Why the VIP is getting 4 HITS against 1-single NSLOOKUP Query.
