We need to file an issue on getting these documented.  Judging from "git
blame" . the failover settings have been around for quite a while.  I
cannot help you much with the failover settings, since I haven't worked in
that area.

I can help you on some of the other settings since Fei and I have been
digging through here recently.

proxy.config.dns.max_dns_in_flight  Controls how many DNS requests are
allowed to be outstanding.  If this limit is reached, further requests will
be delayed until some responses arrive.  I think this is a per thread limit.

proxy.config.dns.lookup_timeout The timeout in seconds on a DNS request.

proxy.config.dns.retries Number of times ATS will retry a DNS request.

proxy.config.dns.local_ipv4
proxy.config.dns.local_ipv6 Specify the source address ATS uses to make DNS
requests.  NULL will pull the IP address from the interface
