Serve stale¶
This allows using timed-out records in case the resolver is unable to contact upstream servers.
By default it allows stale-ness by up to one day,
after roughly four seconds trying to contact the servers.
It’s quite configurable/flexible; see the beginning of the module source for details.
See also the RFC draft (not fully followed) and cache/ns-timeout
.
