The IESG has approved the following document: - 'IPv6 Router Advertisement Options for DNS Configuration' (draft-ietf-6man-rdnss-rfc6106bis-15.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the IPv6 Maintenance Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Suresh Krishnan and Terry Manderson. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-6man-rdnss-rfc6106bis/ Technical Summary This document specifies IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) options (called DNS RA options) to allow IPv6 routers to advertise a list of DNS recursive server addresses and a DNS Search List to IPv6 hosts. It obsoletes RFC 6106 and allows a higher default value of the lifetime of the DNS RA options to avoid the frequent expiry of the options on links with a relatively high rate of packet loss. Working Group Summary The working group preferred to work on a bis version to replace RFC 6106, instead of producing an RFC to update RFC 6106. Document Quality There are several implementations of RFC6106 and these implementations will most likely be updated pretty quickly after this document is published Personnel Fernando Gont is the document shepherd. Suresh Krishnan is the responsible AD
