+EDNS keepalive
+--------------
+
+The ``edns_keepalive`` module implements :rfc:`7828` for *clients* connecting to Knot Resolver via TCP and TLS.
+Note that client connections are timed-out the same way *regardless* of them sending the EDNS option;
+the module just allows clients to discover the timeout.
+
+When connecting to servers, Knot Resolver does not send this EDNS option.
+It still attempts to reuse established connections intelligently.
