## ZONE02: SOA 'refresh' minimum value
|
|
|
|
### Test case identifier
|
|
**ZONE02** SOA 'refresh' minimum value
|
|
|
|
### Objective
|
|
|
|
The SOA refresh value is the number of seconds that describes
|
|
how often a secondary name server will poll the primary name server
|
|
to see if there is any updates. The SOA refresh value is described
|
|
in section 3.3.13 in [RFC 1035](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1035),
|
|
and clarified in section 2.2 of
|
|
[RFC 1912](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1912).
|
|
Setting the refresh value low will increase the DNS traffic between
|
|
the servers, and also increase the load on the master name server.
|
|
The primary name server will in most cases send DNS notifications to
|
|
tell the secondary name servers that zone content has been updated,
|
|
as described in [RFC 1996](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1996).
|
|
|
|
The [RIPE-203](https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-203) recommendation
|
|
for the refresh value is 24 hours (86400 seconds). Older DNSCheck code
|
|
had a four hour minimum value, and this is the minimum value we
|
|
recommend.
|
|
|
|
### Inputs
|
|
|
|
The domain name to be tested.
|
|
|
|
### Ordered description of steps to be taken to execute the test case
|
|
|
|
1. Retrieve the SOA record from a delegated name server for the domain.
|
|
2. If the answer from step 1 is not authoritative, iterate step 1 until there is an authoritative answer.
|
|
3. Retrieve the refresh value from the SOA record.
|
|
4. If the refresh value is less than 14400 (four hours in seconds)
|
|
this test case fails.
|
|
|
|
### Outcome(s)
|
|
|
|
If the SOA refresh value is less than 14400 this test case fails.
|
|
|
|
### Special procedural requirements
|
|
|
|
None.
|
|
|
|
### Intercase dependencies
|
|
|
|
None.
