6211baaa66d7cac28a21b6426681e597ff04ca9eAndreas Gustafsson[1] Queries to zones that have failed to load return SERVFAIL rather
6211baaa66d7cac28a21b6426681e597ff04ca9eAndreas Gustafssonthan a non-authoritative response. This is considered a feature.

6211baaa66d7cac28a21b6426681e597ff04ca9eAndreas Gustafssonmust support EDNS0 (RFC2671), and must return all relevant SIGs and
6211baaa66d7cac28a21b6426681e597ff04ca9eAndreas GustafssonNXTs in responses rather than relying on the resolving server to
6211baaa66d7cac28a21b6426681e597ff04ca9eAndreas Gustafssonperform separate queries for missing SIGs and NXTs.
