Abstract

This document describes the use of QUIC to provide transportconfidentiality for DNS. The encryption provided by QUIC has similarproperties to those provided by TLS, while QUIC transport eliminatesthe head-of-line blocking issues inherent with TCP and provides moreefficient packet-loss recovery than UDP. DNS over QUIC (DoQ) hasprivacy properties similar to DNS over TLS (DoT) specified in RFC7858, and latency characteristics similar to classic DNS over UDP.This specification describes the use of DoQ as a general-purposetransport for DNS and includes the use of DoQ for stub to recursive,recursive to authoritative, and zone transfer scenarios.
