3 monit machines probe 2 recursive DNS, 2 sec timeout, 2 times, 2 cycles, 120 
minute cycle, with the standard 

"if failed port 53 use type udp protocol dns ..."

an Orion machine probes the DNSs, also

a couple days ago, the orion machine reported DNS failure on one DNS server for 
1+ hours, while 3 monit machines didn't send any DNS alert, and did not log 
even 1 DNS timeout.

what does monit do to monit port 53?  still just query for "." zone?

send a UDP packet?

see if it's UDP-listening? 

https://mmonit.com/monit/documentation/ doesn't show any way for monit to send 
an actual DNS query.  Is there a way w/o an execute "script"?
