A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : A Common Operational Problem in DNS Servers - Failure To Respond. Author : M. Andrews Filename : draft-andrews-dns-no-response-issue-15.txt Pages : 15 Date : 2015-11-11 Abstract: The DNS is a query / response protocol. Failure to respond or to respond correctly to queries causes both immediate operational problems and long term problems with protocol development. This document identifies a number of common classes of queries that some servers fail to respond too or respond incorrectly to. This document also suggests procedures for TLD and other similar zone operators to apply to help reduce / eliminate the problem. The document does not look at the DNS data itself, just the structure of the responses.
