Greetings again. Based on some great input from Evan Hunt, we have updated our draft. The algorithm is both simpler and easier to configure. In fact, we have examples of how to configure BIND and Unbound/NSD to match the new spec.
We'll be talking about the new draft in today's meeting. --Paul Hoffman > Name: draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback > Revision: 01 > Title: Decreasing Access Time to Root Servers by Running One > on Loopback > Document date: 2014-11-11 > Group: Individual Submission > Pages: 7 > URL: > http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-01.txt > Status: > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback/ > Htmlized: > http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-01 > Diff: > http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-01 > > Abstract: > Some DNS recursive resolvers have longer-than-desired round trip > times to the closest DNS root server. Such resolvers can greatly > decrease the round trip time by running a copy of the full root zone > on a loopback address (such as 127.0.0.1). This document shows how > to start and maintain such a copy of the root zone in a manner that > is secure for the operator of the recursive resolver and does not > pose a threat to other users of the DNS. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
