Abstract

The Domain Name System's wire protocol includes a number of fixed fields whose range has been or soon will be exhausted, does not allow clients to advertise their capabilities to servers, and does not support the use of multiple questions per request. This document describes backward compatible mechanisms for allowing the protocol to grow.
