The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Initializing a DNS Resolver with Priming Queries' (draft-ietf-dnsop-resolver-priming-11.txt) as Best Current Practice This document is the product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benoit Claise and Joel Jaeggli. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-resolver-priming/ Technical Summary This document describes the queries that a DNS resolver should emit to initialize its cache. The result is that the resolver gets both a current NS RRSet for the root zone and the necessary address information for reaching the root servers. Working Group Summary This document has been active in the working group for several years. It had strong consensus to adopt and publish. However, due to working group inertia and authors busy schedules, the document stalled several times. It was picked back up recently and the document went through an editing process to streamline the language. This time through the process there was enough attention paid by the working group to address any outstanding issues, provide editorial comments, and see the document through.
