# MINUTES
** AGENDA BASHING **
The agenda was adjusted slightly, by adding short time slots to give room
for Daniel Karrenberg to bring up issues with the .LOCAL top level domain
and its impact on the root name servers, and for Ralph Droms to make a
presentation about DHCP.
** STATUS OF OUTSTANDING DRAFTS **
(i). Farewell to drafts this WG doesn't need to think about anymore
draft-ietf-dnsop-hardie-shared-root-server-07.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-v6-name-space-fragmentation-02.txt
draft-ihren-dnsop-interim-signed-root-02.txt
draft-ihren-dnsop-v6-name-space-fragment-01.txt
The above drafts were pronounced dead and taken off the agenda of the
working group.
(ii). WG drafts which are ready for last call
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-transport-guidelines-00.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-serverid-01.txt (?)
No new issues were presented. The chairs will take the drafts to WG last
call.
(iii). Active WG drafts
draft-ietf-dnsop-bad-dns-res-01.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-inaddr-required-04.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-interim-signed-root-01.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-dns-issues-02.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-ohta-shared-root-server-02.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-respsize-00.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-serverid-01.txt [unless handled in (ii). above]
There was no discussion during the session. These drafts are Still
active.
(iv). Expired WG drafts
draft-ietf-dnsop-dontpublish-unreachable-03.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-keyhand-04.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-resolver-rollover-00.txt
draft-ietf-dnsop-rollover-01.txt
No one spoke in favour of revival of any of these. The chairs' approach is to
let them die.
(v). Active individual drafts
draft-durand-dnsop-dynreverse-00.txt
draft-jeong-ipv6-ra-dns-autoconf-00.txt
draft-kato-dnsop-local-zones-00.txt
draft-morishita-dnsop-misbehavior-against-aaaa-00.txt
draft-park-ipv6-extensions-dns-pnp-00.txt
draft-yasuhiro-dnsop-increasing-dns-server-00.txt
The above drafts were deemed still active, but will remain individual
drafts for the time being.
> draft-hall-dns-data-03.txt

draft-warnicke-network-dns-resolution-02.txt
The above drafts were decided to be under serious consideration to become WG
documents.
** IPV6 DNS DISCOVERY -- FRAMING THE DISCUSSION **
Rob Austein made a presentation to try to set the framework for the
discussion. The presentation is found in the meeting archives.
Rob tried to clarify and enumerate the underlying generic problems faced by a
DNS consumer node.
See presentation for details.
Ralph Droms commented that the trust model has changed between IPv4 and
IPv6: the IPv4 address is obviously owned by DHCP server, but in an IPv6
auto-configure scenario the "host" part of the address is "owned" by the
host, and the "prefix" part is "owned" by the upstream router.
** IPV6 DNS DISCOVERY, AND WHY IT IS IMPORTANT **
Bob Hinden made a presentation trying to convey the message about why DNS
discovery is important. The presentation is found in the meeting
archives.
Bob went through the different steps in a DNS consumer's life,
identifying a number of steps where DNS discovery is necessary, and
identifying a couple of different methods to achieve it.
See presentation for details.
There was a note from audience that there is an
auto-registration draft also in the DNSEXT WG.
Ted Lemon also commented that the presentation seemed to conveyed the
message that overloading service location on names or addresses is a
positive thing, which he disagreed with. He was seconded by several
others.
** IPV6 ROUTER ADVERTISEMENT DNS RESOLVER OPTION **
Luc Beloeil made a very fast presentation about the IPv6 router
advertisement DNS resolver option. The presentation is found in the
meeting archives.
See presentation for details.
There was a comment from the audience that DHCP service often is found in
the upstream router anyhow, so why not use it?
** IPV6 EXTENSIONS FOR DNS PLUG AND PLAY **
Syam Madanapalli made a presentation regarding IPv6 Extensions for DNS Plug
and Play. His proposal, called 6DNAC has three steps:
- domain name generation
- duplicate domain name detection
- domain name registration
that were animated in the presentation.
** CONFIGURING DEVICES FOR DNS **
Ralph Droms make a presentation about configuring devices for DNS .
The presentation is found in the meeting archives.
See presentation for details.
** DISCUSSION **
Alain Durand: Please clarify: What happens if you have DHCPv6 and RA
at the same time on same segment? Does this work?
Ralph Droms: No, I haven't tried. Have to think bout it.
Alain: Will it create a problem?
Ralph: If network administrators do the the right thing - no. If not, it
might. It may cause unpredictable behaviour.
Pekka Savola: What are the processes to move forward from here? We should
first think carefully about in which direction we want to go, and then set up
design team.
Bob Hinden: I want to defend my presentation: the name resolution method
using names like ftp... and www... was not intended to be the perfect
solution to service location problem.
Dave Meyer: I still haven't heard why DHCP is NOT the solution to
this.
Olafur Gudmundson: Ditto. Use DHCP! It's small and it's easy. Get over it!
Matt Ford(?): Please no design team. We need this now, and a design team
will take too long.
<Unknown>: The method depends on type of network infrastructure. There
could be ways to do this using PPP options.
Rob Austein: I hear different signals from the PPP group.
<First name> Thomas: Non-DHCP stuff can be used for ad-hoc networks.
<Unknown>: In what way are the proposed options different from DynDNS?
Rob: They create names out of blue to have some thing to register.
Alain: The unsolicited RA message is one-to-many. One message reaches all
clients on the segment. The DHCP proposals lead to bilateral exchanges that
involve at least two-packets per client.
Rob: The security is still an issue. End client needs to verify
signatures, so it needs NTP.
Randy Bush, AD hat on: Please hum: DHCP vs. auto-discovery.
Dave: not conclusive.
Rob: DHCP attractive: client just sends, and just receives.
Ted Lemon: Someone mentioned reliability issues in DHCP, but that
doesn't apply to stateless DHCP in IPv6, since that is a different
animal. Don't compare the two.
Ralph Droms: DHCP "light" is not different from DHCP, it is a subset
thereof.
Dave: We have two classes of proposals: DHCP vs. discovery.
Ted: You have to have a DHCP client anyhow on the client side. Why not use it
for DNS discovery.
Ralph: I don't think the O bit=0 means *DON'T* do DHCP.
Dave: We will take the discussion to the list.
** A SUGGESTED SCHEME FOR DNS RESOLUTION OF NETWORKS AND GATEWAYS **
The author was not present. This agenda item was skipped.
** CONSIDERATIONS FOR DNS RESOURCE RECORDS **
The author was not present. This agenda item was skipped.
** Problems with the .LOCAL TLD **
Daniel Karrenberg
The root server operators have been observing large quantities of
queries for names in the .LOCAL and .LOCALHOST top level domains. At
certain points in time and topology up to 1/3 of the query load. If
anything else thatn root name servers were hit by this type of data
stream, it would be called a DOS attack. :-) What can we do about this? For
now: just answer. In the future we might want not to answer, but that is a
decision that cannot be taken by the root name server operators. An
alternative is to delegate them to query sinks (... and eventually to get
the clients fixed).
Akira Kato has written a draft that addresses these issues. Daniel asked the
chairs 1) what the status of the draft is, and 2) how to proceed.
Rob: Kato's draft was presented in San Francisco (56th IETF), but at the
time it was so new new that not no one had had an informed opinion.
Nothing has happened since. Also: it might create a dangerous
precedence.
Please hum: WG item (intending a BCP) or not? Result: WG item!
** OUTSTANDING ISSUES IN
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-dns-issues-02.txt **
Alain Durand talked briefly about outstanding issues in
draft-ietf-dnsop-ipv6-dns-issues-02.txt. It's almost ready for last call.
Remaining issues: what do about reverse domain space, especially
prepopulation? Another revision with focus on reverse
prepopulation is planned.
** DS UPDATE IN PARENT **
Mohsen Souissi
DNSSEC is getting more and more operational. Test beds in different
places. What about update DS in parent? We need operational
requirements before working.
Randy, AD hat on: This is one of the main focuses of the group! If not
interested there will be consequences ... ;-) Degenerate case: root key
management.
It was found to be a suitable WG item. :-)
The meeting was closed.
