Hello,

I commented the root hint zone section(default) in the named.conf file to stop bind from communicating to the global root DNS servers and it should only use the internal forwarders available in the options{} section.

|#zone "." IN { # type hint; # file "named.ca <http://named.ca>"; #};|

But the BIND still communicates to the ROOT DNS server when the query can't be answered by the internal forwarders.

* Is this a default behavior?

yes

* Does bind has an inbuilt root hint zone even though the zone is not
 defined in the namd.conf file?

yes
