Newly-defined traceroute measurement failing with "name resolution failed: non-recoverable failure in name resolution"
Hi, I have two probes that seem to work just fine; their built-in measurements work, I can see their results from my "My Atlas" page, etc. I happened to notice something weird about the ping times to c.root-servers.net, so wanted to define a traceroute measurement to see if there were route changes that could explain what I saw. However, the only result that I'm getting is "error": "name resolution failed: non-recoverable failure in name resolution". I picked "Resolve on probe", and used "c.root-servers.net" as the destination. I'm pretty sure I didn't make a typo, because I've copy-n-pasted from the dst_name of the result JSON. For reference, the UDM ID is 1010361 and the probes are 4936 and 4938. Each probe has a working DNS server configured, according to the "My Probes" view. Thanks for any help, Bill (P.S. I created a new UDM using the IP address, to work around the DNS problem, but it'd still be nice to understand what I did wrong with the other one.)

I've no idea what is going on there. It works on other probes and your resolvers also seem to work fine. I'll try to investigate.
