Hi, Paul. Thanks for the feedback. The reasoning behind these latency measurements is to have some context for interpreting latency to root server instances. For example, a slow "last mile" link would likely have effects on both root server and open resolver latencies. The work party decided on using popular open resolvers as a reference latency target since they are a well-deployed service and have similar processing times (non-recursive DB lookup). The exact math for such an analysis is not described in this document, but the reasoning is laid out at the end of section 2.1, under item #4 in the list of "measurements of interest". If you think that additional text is required, I would be glad to propose something and work with you to address this. Thanks! -Ken On 8/24/21, 2:38 PM, "rssac-caucus on behalf of Paul Hoffman" <rssac-caucus-bounces(a)icann.org on behalf of paul.hoffman(a)icann.org> wrote: All active links contained in this email were disabled.

Greetings again. I was not active in the work party, but I have done some review passes on the document late in the process. I still have a deep concern about the part in the middle where timings of some sort from open public resolvers are made. I put a comment in this near-final document, but have not seen any significant discussion. If RSSAC wants to do these probes, it would be really good if their use was explained in the document. --Paul Hoffman

At the same time, I have to say I'm leery of adding a metric "because someone asked for it" or "it might be interesting"; they involve processing and storage, and therefore should have a substantive argument behind them. Anyone submitting a proposed metric should probably say what it represents and what they expect to learn from it.
