The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Common Operational Problem in DNS Servers - Failure To Communicate' (draft-ietf-dnsop-no-response-issue-20.txt) as Best Current Practice
This document is the product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Robert Wilton. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-no-response-issue/ Technical Summary Failing to respond to DNS queries, or responding incorrectly, causes both immediate operational problems and long term problems with protocol development. This document identifies a number of common kinds of DNS queries which some servers either fail to respond or else respond incorrectly. This document also suggests procedures for zone operators to apply to identify and remediate the problem. Working Group Summary The document initially prescribed remediation for failing to respond correctly. After much working group debate, this wording was removed and the document focused on documenting the failure scenarios. Document Quality Document quality is good and has been through several reviews. Comments raised at IETF LC were addressed.
