So I propose: - make clear that TCP support is mandatory. - allow servers to use the timeout they like, even a zero timeout (the last point should be discussed). Note a zero timeout doesn't mean "send the response and close" but "send the response, check there is not pending query, and close".
Are you aware of draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-tcp-keepalive-01 ? http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-tcp-keepalive-01
Now there are the not technical questions to solve first: - is DNSOP chartered to do this? Point 4 says "protocol maintenance" and point 5 allows more if the area director agree.
I believe that was specifically changed to accomodate for this, yes.
- is 5966bis the right place? I don't think so but another document means the 5966bis will be delayed...
If signaling for this is needed, then a separate document would be good. Paul _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
