DNS Flag Day 2020: The default EDNS buffer size has been changed from
4096 to 1232 bytes. According to measurements done by multiple
parties, this should not cause any operational problems as most of
the Internet "core" is able to cope with IP message sizes between
1400-1500 bytes; the 1232 size was picked as a conservative minimal
number that could be changed by the DNS operator to an estimated path
MTU minus the estimated header space. In practice, the smallest MTU
witnessed in the operational DNS community is 1500 octets, the
maximum Ethernet payload size, so a useful default for maximum
DNS/UDP payload size on reliable networks would be 1400 bytes.
