Yes, so because they’re unordered, they could also be ordered, and that should be seen as a version of unordered vs strictly ordered. Just because the last 10m times I asked it came in the same order doesn’t mean that for 10m+1 it will be or should be. I’m reminded of some large content providers telling me how they routed their ICMP bits differently than their non-ICMP because they had dedicated hosts to just respond to the ICMP requests of www.example.com folks used as a measurement point to see if their connectivity was working :-) - Jared _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
