The IESG has received a request from the Domain Name System Operations WG (dnsop) to consider the following document: - 'DNS IPv6 Transport Operational Guidelines' <draft-ietf-dnsop-3901bis-09.txt> as Best Current Practice
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2026-01-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document provides guidelines and documents Best Current Practice for operating authoritative DNS servers as well as recursive and stub DNS resolvers, given that queries and responses are carried in a mixed environment of IPv4 and IPv6 networks. This document recommends that authoritative DNS servers as well as recursive DNS resolvers support both IPv4 and IPv6. It furthermore provides guidance for how recursive DNS resolvers should select upstream DNS servers, if both native and IPv4-embedded IPv6 addresses are available. This document obsoletes RFC 3901. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-3901bis/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
