<br>
My understanding is that UDP fragmentation is something frown upon in IPv4 and even more on IPv6 (because of processing power needed, and security concerns)?<br>
<br>
What is the recommended setup for EDNS?<br>
-limit size to <1500? on both IPv4 and IPv6?<br>
-allow UDP fragmentation on IPv4 and IPv6, how securely?<br>
<br>
How does that play with DNSSEC large data records? I have seen that with some low TTL, bind tends not to fallback (from 4096 to 512) fast enough often to return an answer within the time allocated.<br>
<br>
Any good documentation, pointers?<br>
