Currently, it is thought that the maximum number of DNS server hosts for
a zone is 13. In fact, DNS server hosts of root zone and .com/.net zone
are operated by 13 servers.
This draft proposes an approach for increasing of DNS server hosts
without changing DNS protocol by using 'multiple-addresses per host'
basis.
Especially, this approach is useful for adding IPv6 DNS servers for root
and TLD zones. And it also may be useful for signing root zone for
DNSSEC.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
