Get back to us when you prove that this co-exists with DNSSEC; otherwise it's a non-starter. While you're at it, some data proving that this actually enhances performance or availability would be nice too.

Hello,
I am reading this mailing as a digest so sorry for the late replies. Firstly we have been using this method for over 4 years and I've yet not had one person tell me that they can connect to our servers using POP3, SMPT, IMAP or WEB.

1. Mark, Regarding Chrome, my last big crawl of the internet from Hong Kong the average DNS resolution was 450ms average... so 300ms would give you what result. Not sure I don't care. I am talking for IP connectivity not some application decigin which RR it shoud use as many applications are dumb and you can't ask the remote end to change anything. FYI, I will never use Chrome and nor will many people due to privacy issues. It is banned in companies in Asia.

2. Mark there are no modification to any packets at the DNS resolver level.... nor sure why there would have be. We have yet not implemented DNS SEC so I don't know if this breaks anything. First packet wins.... both can be signed. Now if you have something set on paranoid mode which checks the consistency of the DNS servers it would fail... that is an extreme minority and have YET to see a complaint.

Matus, I like your reply. You are right that the wining IP would be the one that is closes to the Resolving server than to the client...... I know that not everyone is using a DNS resolver on the same network/AS number that they are on. This could be the biggest flaw. Say you use Google FreeDNS and it will give as a reply what ever google can access the fastest. However if you are using a DNS resolver within your AS number you will benefit from DNS Racing. Well pointed out. All that this does is breaks the best bath and access guarantee that DNS Racing provides.... In reality if you don't implement DNS racing you would get the same result.

No it does not rely on BIND RTT feature, we are talking about pure latency DNS replies race to the resolver, the one that gets there first is the winner.

This is not something that I just dream up yesterday we have been using it for years.... without problems.... which is why I feel it is safe to document in and recommend it.

Regards,
Maren.

And if people used happy-eyeballs[1] or similar[2] in the applications
this would not be needed.  Chrome already does this with their
latest browser.  It uses a 300ms timer to switch to the next address.

Happy-eyeballs was primarially written to deal with broken 6to4
links but the techniques are applicable to any multi-homed service
be it IPv4 only, IPv6 only or a mixture of IPv4 and IPv6.

IT is a poor man=92s replacement for BGP multihoming and IP anycast.
Hey it is Free and you can implement it using BIND.
And you've just broken DNSSEC.
