A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Aggressive use of NSEC/NSEC3 Authors : Kazunori Fujiwara Akira Kato Filename : draft-fujiwara-dnsop-nsec-aggressiveuse-02.txt Pages : 12 Date : 2015-10-19 Abstract: While DNS highly depends on cache, its cache usage of non-existence information was limited to exact matching. This draft proposes the aggressive use of a NSEC/NSEC3 resource record, which is able to express non-existence of range of names authoritatively. With this proposal, shorter latency to many of negative responses is expected as well as some level of mitigation of random sub-domain attacks (referred to as "Water Torture" attacks). It is also expected that non-existent TLD queries to Root DNS servers will decrease.
