Abstract:

   This document specifies a new extensible method for the delegation of
   authority for a domain in the Domain Name System (DNS) using DELEG
   and DELEGPARAM records.

   A delegation in the DNS enables efficient and distributed management
   of the DNS namespace.  The traditional DNS delegation is based on NS
   records which contain only hostnames of servers and no other
   parameters.  In classic DNS, both parent and child zones contain
   copies of NS delegation records, which can potentially be out of sync
   and confusing.  The new delegation records are extensible, can be
   secured with DNSSEC, and eliminate the problem of having two sources
   of truth for delegation information.
