What is dnsServOptCounterSelfReqUnparses?

This OID holds a counter tracking DNS queries that arrived in an unreadable format from a resolver (DNS client) running on the same machine. It tells you how many malformed DNS requests the server received from the local system. A DNS administrator monitors this to detect configuration problems or buggy DNS software on the server.
