I like your idea! Another one is to reserve n bits for the length of the resolver/forwarder chain to the answer. if you pass it on, increment the n bits. preserve it in the answer.
would permit authorities, and clients to know how long the chain is behind the answers they see and questions made. I posit 3 bits would be plenty. -G _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
