The drop-list rules could be frequently updated by the DOTS client based on the tests used by the DOTS client domain (e.g. cryptographic challenge) to detect whether the IP address is for legitimate use or not, or based on threat intelligence feeds from security vendors providing the botnet/malicious IP addresses feed.  Further, persistent DOTS data channel is required to handle updates to target resources (e.g. CDN hosting a domain, and it needs DDoS protection) and target IP/prefix may also change frequently (mobile branch office, prefix re-numbering etc.)

Further, we are not mandating the connection to be persistent, but when needed, the probe mechanism applies. Please note https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-netconf-netconf-client-server-13 discusses persistent-connection and it’s a client preference on how the connection is maintained (persistent or periodic).

Cheers,
