[Qin]: Defaults and Recommended Limits is interesting, I assume it aligns with 
the guidelines in section 6.2 of RFC7766
I am wondering whether the total number of established connections is referred 
to the number of concurrent connections? Come from a single client or multiple 
clients?

I am a little bit surprised that the connection number limit for DNS over UDP 
is much less than one for DNS over TCP?
Since I think UDP can support many more client at the same time due to the lack 
of connection state, can you clarifies the rationale behind,
Thanks.
