Abstract
In order to simplify the deployment of AAAA records in the DNS, name servers should only perform automatic inclusion of these RRs when there is an explicit indication that the resolver can understand those RRs. This document proposes the use of a bit in the EDNS0 header to provide that explicit indication and describes the necessary protocol changes to implement that notification.
