+Internet-Draft RFC 3597 Interoperability Report August 2004
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ This memo documents the result from the RFC 3597 (Handling of Unknown
+ DNS Resource Record Types) interoperability testing. The test was
+ performed during June and July 2004 by request of the IETF DNS
+ Extensions Working Group.
+
+2. Implementations
+
+ The following is a list, in alphabetic order, of implementations for
+ compliance of RFC 3597:
+
+ DNSJava 1.6.4
+ ISC BIND 8.4.5rc4
+ ISC BIND 9.3.0rc2
+ NSD 2.1.1
+ Net::DNS 0.47 patchlevel 1
+ Nominum ANS 2.2.1.0.d
+
+ These implementations covers the following functions (number of
+ implementations tested for each function in paranthesis):
+
+ Authoritative Name Servers (4)
+ Full Recursive Resolver (2)
+ Stub Resolver (4)
+ DNSSEC Zone Signers (2)
+
+3. Tests
+
+3.1 Authoritative Primary Name Server
+
+ The test zone data (Appendix A) was loaded into the name server
+ implementation and the server was queried for the loaded information.
+
+3.2 Authoritative Secondary Name Server
+
+ The test zone data (Appendix A) was transferred using AXFR from
+ another name server implementation and the server was queried for the
+ transferred information.
+
+3.3 Full Recursive Resolver
+
+ A recursive resolver was queried for resource records from a domain
+ with the test zone data (Appendix A).
+
+3.4 Stub Resolver
+
+ A stub resolver was used to query resource records from a domain with
+
+
+
+Schlyter Expires February 22, 2005 [Page 3]
+
+Internet-Draft RFC 3597 Interoperability Report August 2004
+
+
+ the test zone data (Appendix A).
+
+3.5 DNSSEC Signer
+
+ A DNSSEC signer was used to sign a zone with test zone data (Appendix
+ A).
+
+4. Problems found
+
+ Two implementations had problems with text presentation of zero
+ length RDATA.
+
+ One implementation had problems with text presentation of RR type
+ code and classes >= 4096.
+
+ Bug reports were filed for problems found.
+
+5. Summary
+
+ Unknown type codes works in the tested authoritative servers,
+ recursive resolvers and stub clients.
+
+ No changes are needed to advance RFC 3597 to draft standard.
