Package: nsd
Severity: normal

Hello,

Please deliver a default configuration which prevents fragmentation
of UDP EDNS datagrams.

DNS Flag Day 2020 is focusing "on the operational and security
problems in DNS caused by Internet Protocol packet fragmentation."

https://dnsflagday.net/

They recommend:

server:
  ipv4-edns-size: 1232
  ipv6-edns-size: 1232

FYI, it seems the DNS Flag Day people involve some big players.  They
are interested in removing work-arounds from their own systems which
provide interoperability with other people's poorly configured or
poorly operating DNS servers.

See also Bug#947028.

Regards,
Karl
