I agree with other reviewers that this document is well-presented and informative. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- General: The document seems to omit a definition for the term "class," although it is used in many places an clearly has a very precise meaning in DNS parlance. It would be nice to see one added, as I got a bit confused when I hit the definition for "Class independent" in section 5 and realized that I'd been conflating "RR type" with "Class" -- and couldn't find guidance in this document to clarify the difference. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- §2: > Multicast DNS: "Multicast DNS (mDNS) provides the ability to perform > DNS-like operations on the local link in the absence of any > conventional Unicast DNS server. This definition seems to be a little oversimplified in light of the mechanisms described by draft-ietf-dnssd-hybrid and draft-ietf-dnssd-mdns-relay. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- §5: > Master file: "Master files are text files that contain RRs in text > form. Since the contents of a zone can be expressed in the form > of a list of RRs a master file is most often used to define Nit: "...list of RRs, a master..." ^ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- §5: > Owner: The domain name where a RR is found ([RFC1034], Section 3.6). Nit: "...an RR..." (see RFC 7322 §1, CMOS 10.9) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- §6: > The idea of a primary master is only used by [RFC2136], > and is considered archaic in other parts of the DNS. > > The idea of a primary master is only used in [RFC1996] and > [RFC2136]. These sentences seem redundant and partially contradictory. I suspect the first one should be removed. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- §6: > Privacy-enabling DNS server: "A DNS server that implements DNS over > TLS [RFC7858] and may optionally implement DNS over DTLS > [RFC8094]." (Quoted from [RFC8310], Section 2) This definition seems incomplete in light of the mechanism defined in draft-ietf-doh-dns-over-https. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Acknowledgements: > The following is the Acknowledgements for RFC 7719. Additional > acknowledgements may be added as this draft is worked on. This feels out of date. Consider removing. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
