Bill,

Default used to be 512, with the eDNS changes, it should be set to 4096 to 
avoid issues.

Subject: [c-nsp] ASA55xx | DNS Maximum message

We experienced an odd issue recently where queries to a .gov site were timing 
out. Upon further investigation, packet captures, etc., we noticed that the 
return packet was fragmented and 1514 bytes. I increased the default value in

policy-map type inspect dns <pol_name>
  parameters
    message-length maximum xxx

This seem to fix my issues with that particular .gov site.

My question is has the recent signing of dns zones on certain .gov name hosts 
affected the packet size and will this be an ongoing issue for folks running 
asa with the default inspect parameters?

Thank you,

-b
