This is a DNSEXT WG last call on this document, please send your comments to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] This document updates RFC2535 and RFC2874 (A6) to demand larger UDP message size than 512 bytes. This document mandates that any entity supporting either DNSSEC or A6 records must support EDNS0 on queries and responses. The motivation(s) for this is the increase in size of DNS answers caused by DNSSEC, IPng, TSIG and large the desire for large answer sets. The document assumes that modern operating systems can do UDP reassembly, thus this the single UDP message requirement can be relaxed and this is less costly than falling back on TCP for all large answers. This WG last call ends December 17'th 2000.
