Tony is correct, the first paragraph above IS NOT TRUE. Truncation is a situation in which the server responding to a client provides a message that won't fit in the specified packet size that the specification (and possibly the client, but I won't get into that here) has set for the response, thus providing a response that does not contain the entire response and sets the header bit TC=1. This has nothing to do with TCP vs. UDP in the initial query. There is no fallback from UDP to TCP when the initial UDP query times out. Please read up on `dnsdist` and give it a try. Thanks!
