There was some activity on the list in 2017-01 about this: https://mailman.powerdns.com/pipermail/dnsdist/2017-January/thread.html Out of that, Chris wrote a "orderedLeastOutstanding.lua" custom load balancing policy. https://github.com/sysadminblog/dnsdist-configs/blob/master/orderedLeastOutstanding.lua I forked that and modified it and made an "orderedwrandom.lua" custom load balancing policy: https://github.com/tbaschak/dnsdist-configs/blob/master/orderedwrandom.lua Theodore Baschak - AS395089 - Hextet Systems https://bgp.guru/ - https://hextet.net/ http://mbix.ca/ - http://mbnog.ca/
