What is dnsResNCacheBadNCaches?
This OID counts the number of times the DNS system tried to save negative caching information (answers saying 'domain not found') but couldn't because the source data looked invalid or incomplete. It's a counter that only increases. Operators monitor this to spot DNS resolver reliability issues or problems with upstream DNS servers.
