Hello,
I would like to have your thoughts about what should be the best values for 
refresh, retry, expire and negative cache.
In my case I have 2 DNS which are hosted in 2 different locations. These 
location are near one another (100km). The latency is very low and packet is 
0.I configured a lot of zones on my DNS and they not master for someone 
else.This is a very simple setup in termes of master/slave.
I would be tempted to* configure a high refresh period since I have notify 
configured on the master. What about 7200s ?* Configure a high retry period 
because I don't expect the master to be offline, what about 3600 ?* configure a 
expire very high like 2 days so that the DNS service would work even if the 
master is down* I don't have any opinion about the negative ttl yet but any 
advices are welcomed.
What about your setups if it looks like mine ?
Regards


I typically use an expire time of 14 days or a month.  But that said, you need 
some way to get notified that zone transfers are failing.The refresh and retry 
are ok, but personally I would set them lower because they don't generate a lot 
of traffic, and a notify could get lost.  It depends on how sensitive you are 
to extra traffic.
Negative TTL depends partly on how fast you want new (or accidentally deleted) 
records to be usable.  I use 10 minutes.
