Greetings again. Thank you to the people who gave us feedback on our earlier draft (draft-wkumari-dnsop-dist-root) saying that it needed a better defined use case and less grandiose claims of helping where it didn't really. Instead of continuing on that draft, we started a new one with has the narrower focus, a single goal, and clearer requirements.
Comments are appreciated. If the chairs want, we can talk about this at the upcoming meeting, particularly if there is discussion here before that. --Paul Hoffman and Warren Kumari > A new version of I-D, draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-00.txt > has been successfully submitted by Paul Hoffman and posted to the > IETF repository. > > Name: draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback > Revision: 00 > Title: Decreasing Access Time to Root Servers by Running One > on Loopback > Document date: 2014-10-25 > Group: Individual Submission > Pages: 5 > URL: > http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-00.txt > Status: > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback/ > Htmlized: > http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wkumari-dnsop-root-loopback-00 > > > Abstract: > Some DNS recursive resolvers have longer-than-desired round trip > times to the closest DNS root server. Such resolvers can greatly > decrease the rount trip time by running a copy of the full root zone > on a loopback address (such as 127.0.0.1).
