What is dnsResCounterNonAuthDataResps?
This counter tracks the number of DNS resolver queries that returned non-authoritative (cached) answers from DNS servers. Non-authoritative answers come from cached data rather than directly from the zone authority, indicating a cache hit. Network operators monitor this counter to assess DNS cache effectiveness, understand query latency, and diagnose DNS resolver performance bottlenecks.
