Abstract:
   The DNS relies upon caching to scale; however, the cache lookup
   generally requires an exact match.  This document specifies the use
   of NSEC/NSEC3 resource records to generate negative answers within a
   range.  This increases performance / decreases latency, decreases
   resource utilization on both authoritative and recursive servers, and
   also increases privacy.  It may also help increase resilience to
   certain DoS attacks in some circumstances.

   This document updates RFC4035 by allowing resolvers to generate
   negative answers based upon NSEC/NSEC3 records.
