Title : Running a Root Server Local to a Resolver
Authors : Warren Kumari

Filename : draft-ietf-dnsop-7706bis-07.txt
Pages : 13

Abstract:
Some DNS recursive resolvers have longer-than-desired round-trip
times to the closest DNS root server such as during a network attack.
Some DNS recursive resolver operators want to prevent snooping by
third parties of requests sent to DNS root servers. Such resolvers
can greatly decrease the round-trip time and prevent observation of
requests by serving a copy of the full root zone on the same server,
such as on a loopback address or in the resolver software. This
document shows how to start and maintain such a copy of the root zone
that does not cause problems for other users of the DNS, at the cost
of adding some operational fragility for the operator.
