-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello BIND developers,
We have some BIND servers configured as slaves for many hundreds of zones, with the master pointing to our distribution master's IPv4 and IPv6 address. One some of these servers, the IPv6 routing was broken, so that when BIND tried to refresh from the master's IPv6 address, it timed out. Then it tried to refresh over TCP, because the option "try-tcp-refresh" defaults to "yes". This caused even more delays in trying to refresh zones. Eventually they fell back to IPv4, but this caused many zones to lag behind quite often. I've fixed the IPv6 issue now, but then I wanted to set "try-tcp-refresh" to "no" on all these servers, but I'm confused about the location of this setting. The BIND 9.10.2 ARM suggests that it is a per-zone setting. Can I also set it in the global "options" area? Finally, why is this setting defaulting to "yes"? If it's for BIND8 compatibility, isn't it time it defaulted to "no"?
