Title : OCSP over DNS

One of the most strategic problems for Internet Certification
Authorities (ICAs) is the provisioning of revocation information in
an efficient way. Current approaches for the distribution of OCSP
responses over HTTP do not provide efficient solutions for the high
volume of traffic that Internet CAs face when providing services for
highly utilized websites. This document describes a new transport
protocol for OCSP responses to efficiently provide revocation
information about digital certificates.
In particular, this specification defines how to distribute OCSP
responses over DNS and how to define OCSP-over-DNS URLs in
certificates. The use of the DNS system to distribute such
information is meant to lower the costs of providing revocation
services and increase the availability of revocation information by
using the distributed nature of the DNS infrastructure.
