The IESG has received a request from the Domain Name System Operations WG (dnsop) to consider the following document: - 'Structured Error Data for Filtered DNS' <draft-ietf-dnsop-structured-dns-error-22.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2026-06-23. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Note: this is the second IETF Last Call for this document as the first IETF Last Call (May 2025) did not get consensus. Read the shepherd's write-up for more information. Abstract DNS filtering is widely deployed for various reasons, including network security and policy enforcement. However, filtered DNS responses lack structured information for end users to understand the reason for the filtering. Existing mechanisms to provide explanatory details to end users cause harm especially if the blocked DNS response is for HTTPS resources. This document updates RFC 8914 by signaling client support for structuring the EXTRA-TEXT field of the Extended DNS Error to provide details on the DNS filtering. Such details can be parsed by the client and displayed, logged, or used for other purposes. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-structured-dns-error/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
