Forwarder selection has been based on RTTs for quite a while now. So, if what you're trying to protect against is your "primary" forwarders being DoS'ed, why not just define your "primary" and "backup" forwarders in the same forwarder list? Due to RTT calculations, the "backup" forwarders would normally not be used (much), if they're slower, but in the DoS scenario, the queries would automatically fail over.

If your "backup" forwarders are *not* significantly slower than your "primary" ones, then *all*the*more*reason* for them to be in the forwarder list, in order to provide ongoing DoS protection. (Unless they're more expensive to use, perhaps? In that case, you might want into some sort of rate-limiting-based and/or load-balancer-based solution).

Dave,

sorry for the delay reply.

These zones are not owned by ISP, such as: yahoo.com, facebook.com...
If such backup dns server is ready, ISP will talk to these WEB sites to keep synchronization with their authority NSs.
It's maybe a huge project.

Thanks,
