<listitem><para>Takes a duration value, which determines the length of time DNS resource records can be retained

By default, this value is set to zero, meaning that DNS resource records are not stored in the cache after their TTL expires.</para>

<para>This is useful when a DNS server failure occurs or becomes unreachable.
In such cases, systemd-resolved continues to use the stale records to answer DNS queries, particularly when no valid response
can be obtained from the upstream DNS servers. However, this doesn't apply to NXDOMAIN responses, as those are still perfectly valid responses.
This feature enhances resilience against DNS infrastructure failures and outages.</para>
