Hi,
After deploying DNS User Experience to several servers that have agents running, I'm having issues running DNS User Experience on two of the servers. When I look in the log, I found that the target IP is wrong. These servers are set up with static IPs, the Target IPs listed in the log is a so called a link-local IPv4 address, which I can't find anywhere assigned on these servers and it is certainly not set as the Node IP in SolarWinds.
Where does the DNS User Experience monitor retrieve the Target IP from?
