"Discarding the RRset before the TTL has expired" is not a protocol violation: there are many legitimate reasons why a resolver might do so (lack of memory, for instance). The text in the draft referred to "hanging onto the RRset after the TTL has expired" (hence the reference to "very short TTL") which *is* a protocol violation. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
