Hi Mukund, The document authors have discussed this and we feel the addition of this paragraph in section 7 addresses the issue that you've raised: Note that AXFR [RFC5936] and IXFR [RFC1995] have the property that one query message might result in multiple response messages. Therefore, those protocols have their own specific ordering requirements. Look reasonable?
