New DNS configuration option
----------------------------

                 Key: TS-428
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-428
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Leif Hedstrom
            Assignee: Miles Libbey
             Fix For: 2.2.0


There is a new DNS configuration option, from the records.config file:

   # This provides additional resilience against DNS forgery, particularly in
   # forward or transparent proxies, but requires that the resolver populates
   # the queries section of the response properly.
CONFIG proxy.config.dns.validate_query_name INT 0


This setting is disabled by default, enabling it will force us to validate the 
name in response from the resolver to make sure it matches the request we made. 
This could potentially break if the resolver does not populate the queries 
section with the requested name.

Enabling this option is highly recommended, particularly for running ATS in a 
forward or transparent proxy configuration.
