Errata ID: 6783
Status: Verified

Section 8.2.3 says:

as unknown EDNS options are supposed to be ignored by the
   server (Section 6.1.1 of [RFC6891]).

It should say:

as unknown EDNS options are supposed to be ignored by the
   server (Section 6.1.2 of [RFC6891]).

Notes:

Reference to the section in RFC 6891 is incorrect. There's no information on what to do with unknown options in RFC 6891 section 6.1.1.

Section 8.2.8 says:

expect: DO=1 to be present if an RRSIG is in the response

It should say:

expect: flag: do to be present if an RRSIG is in the response

Notes:

The same section has `expect: flag: aa to be present`, and when running the suggested command, no `DO=1` is shown, which makes the advice unhelpful.

Sample command:
```
$ dig +nocookie +edns=0 +noad +norec +dnssec soa $zone @$server

; <<>> DiG 9.16.44-Debian <<>> +nocookie +edns +noad +norec +dnssec soa powerdns.com @2600:3c03::f03c:91ff:fe55:e54d

It was also suggested that reminding readers that "@$server" in this case refers to an
authoritative server, and not a recursive server - See Sec 8 ]
