      <t>
	The principal output of any domain name registry system is a DNS zone
	file, which contains the delegation record(s) for names registered
	within a zone (such as a top-level domain).  These records typically
	include one or more <tt>NS</tt> records, but may also include
	<tt>DS</tt> records for domains secured with DNSSEC (<xref target="RFC9364"/>), <xref
	target="RFC9364"/>, and <tt>DNAME</tt> records for IDN Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) variants (<xref target="RFC6927"/>). <xref
	target="RFC6927"/>.  <tt>A</tt> and/or <tt>AAAA</tt> records may also
	be published for nameservers where they are required by DNS resolvers
	to avoid an infinite loop.
</t> loop.</t>
      <t>
	Typically, the Time-To-Live Time-to-Live (TTL) value (TTL, see (see <xref section="5"
	sectionFormat="of" target="RFC9499"/>) of these records is determined
	by the registry operator.  However, in some circumstances it may be
	desirable to allow the sponsoring client of a domain name to change
	the TTL values used for that domain's delegation: for example, to
	reduce the amount of time required to complete a change of DNS
	servers, DNSSEC deployment or key rollover, or to allow for fast
	rollback of such changes.
</t> changes.</t>
      <t>
	This document describes an EPP extension to the domain name and host
	object mappings (described in <xref target="RFC5731"/> and <xref
	target="RFC5732"/>, respectively) which that allows the sponsor of a domain
	name or host object to change the TTL values of the resource record(s)
	associated with that object.  It also describes how EPP servers should
	handle TTLs specified by EPP clients and how both parties co-ordinate coordinate
	to manage TTL values in response to changes in operational or security requirements.

Original:
   <ttl:ttl> elements have the optional following attributes, depending
   on whether they appear in an EPP command or response:

   1.  "for", which is <bcp14>REQUIRED</bcp14> REQUIRED in both commands and responses, and
       which specifies the DNS record type to which the TTL value
       pertains.  This attribute MUST have one of the following values:
       "NS", "DS", "DNAME", "A", "AAAA" or "custom";

   2.  If the value of the "for" attribute is "custom", then the
       <ttl:ttl> element MUST also have a "custom" attribute containing
       a DNS record type conforming with the regular expression in
       Section 3.1 of [RFC6895].  Additionally, the record type MUST be
       registered with IANA in [IANA-RRTYPES].

   3.  "min", which MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be
       present in EPP responses (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used
       by the server to indicate the lowest value that may be set;

   4.  "default", which MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be
       present in EPP responses (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used
       by the server to indicate the default value;

   5.  "max", which MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be
       present in EPP responses (see Section 2.1.1), and which is used
       by the server to indicate the highest value that may be set;

Current:
   "for"
      REQUIRED in both commands and responses, and specifies the DNS
      record type to which the TTL value pertains.  This attribute MUST
      have one of the following values: "NS", "DS", "DNAME", "A", "AAAA"
      or "custom".

   "custom"
      If the value of the "for" attribute is "custom", then the
      <ttl:ttl> element MUST also have a "custom" attribute containing a
      DNS record type conforming with the regular expression in
      Section 3.1 of [RFC6895].  Additionally, the record type MUST be
      registered with IANA in [IANA-RRTYPES].

   "min"
      MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be present in EPP
      responses (see Section 2.1.1).  It is also used by the server to
      indicate the lowest value that may be set.

   "default"
      MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be present in EPP
      responses (see Section 2.1.1).  It is also used by the server to
      indicate the default value.

   "max"
      MUST NOT be present in EPP commands but MAY be present in EPP
      responses (see Section 2.1.1).  It is also used by the server to
      indicate the highest value that may be set.

In the Dnsdir review:

Fixed example IPv6 addresses to use HTML and PDF outputs, <strong> yields bold.
In the preferred prefix 2001:DB8::.
</li>
          <li>
Added paragraph to <xref target="permitted-types"/> describing how clients can use text output, <strong> yields an asterisk before and after.
 - In this document: used for field names in the Policy Mode <tt>&lt;info&gt;</tt> command (<xref target="policy-mode"/>) to discover IANA Considerations.
 - We recommend removing these, as the DNS record types supported by asterisks seem unnecessary in the server.
