Default BIND query timeouts

[Kevin Darcy]

If a client sends a recursive query to the BIND instance, and that 
instance needs to fetch the answer from one or more other upstream 
sources, then my understanding is that the "resolver-query-timeout" 
global option (see the BIND docs) controls the timeout for each one of 
those upstream transactions. Default value is 10 seconds.

Does that answer your question?
