+Root on loopback (RFC 7706)
+---------------------------
+Knot Resolver developers think that literal implementation of :rfc:`7706`
+("Decreasing Access Time to Root Servers by Running One on Loopback")
+is a bad idea so it is not implemented in the form envisioned by the RFC.
+
+You can get the very similar effect without its downsides by combining
+:ref:`mod-prefill` and :ref:`mod-serve_stale` modules with Aggressive Use
+of DNSSEC-Validated Cache (:rfc:`8198`) behavior which is enabled
+automatically together with DNSSEC validation.
