The question is better phrased as "How does BIND choose name servers?" The SRTT selection method used by BIND is not quite described anywhere in an ISC document (such as in the ARM), but sometime ago there was a presentation about a vulnerability that described it: https://www.usenix.org/sites/default/files/conference/protected-files/hay_woot13_slides.pdf Since the publication of this presentation, it has been tweaked, but the selection method is somewhat similar and the paper will give you a good description. See also ISC's KB article about the issue described in the presentation: https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-01030/169/Operational-Notification-A-Vulnerability-in-the-SRTT-Algorithm-affects-BIND-9-Authoritative-Server-Selection.html Mukund
