1047=item C<PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS>
1048
1049Used by both L<AnyEvent::DNS> and L<AnyEvent::Socket> to determine preferences
1050for IPv4 or IPv6. The default is unspecified (and might change, or be the result
1051of autoprobing).
1052
1053Must be set to a comma-separated list of protocols or address families,
1054current supported: C<ipv4> and C<ipv6>. Only protocols mentioned will be
1055used, and preference will be given to protocols mentioned earlier in the
1056list.
1057
1058This variable can effectively be used for denial-of-service attacks
1059against local programs (e.g. when setuid), although the impact is likely
1060small, as the program has to handle connection errors already-
1061
1062Examples: C<PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS=ipv4,ipv6> - prefer IPv4 over IPv6,
1063but support both and try to use both. C<PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS=ipv4>
1064- only support IPv4, never try to resolve or contact IPv6
1065addressses. C<PERL_ANYEVENT_PROTOCOLS=ipv6,ipv4> support either IPv4 or
1066IPv6, but prefer IPv6 over IPv4.
1067
1068=item C<PERL_ANYEVENT_EDNS0>
1069
1070Used by L<AnyEvent::DNS> to decide wether to use the EDNS0 extension
1071for DNS. This extension is generally useful to reduce DNS traffic, but
1072some (broken) firewalls drop such DNS packets, which is why it is off by
1073default.
1074
1075Setting this variable to C<1> will cause L<AnyEvent::DNS> to announce
1076EDNS0 in its DNS requests.
