Only one argument is acceptable, and it covers both IPv4 and IPv6.
## Examples
Enable limiting the buffer size of outgoing query to the resolver (172.31.0.10):
```corefile

bufsize 512

If you run a resolver on 172.31.0.10, the buffer size of incoming query on the resolver will be set to 512 bytes.
Enable limiting the buffer size as an authoritative nameserver:
```corefile
. {
bufsize 512
file db.example.org
log
}
```
## Considerations
For now, if a client does not use EDNS, this plugin adds OPT RR.
- Setting 1232 bytes to bufsize may avoid fragmentation on the majority of networks in use today, but it depends on the MTU of the physical network links.
- For now, if a client does not use EDNS, this plugin adds OPT RR.
