Hi all, I wrote up the below-referenced draft to document some measurement aspects of L-Root.
No doubt there are typos, errors, ambiguity and related horrors in the text which could be improved. If you have a few spare minutes and don't mind giving me a review, I'd appreciate it. (apologies if you get some form of this e-mail in multiple places due to overlapping list subscriptions) Thanks, Joe Begin forwarded message: > From: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Subject: New Version Notification for > draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping-00.txt > Date: 25 March 2013 15:29:43 EDT > To: Joe Abley <[email protected]> > > > A new version of I-D, draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping-00.txt > has been successfully submitted by Joe Abley and posted to the > IETF repository. > > Filename: draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping > Revision: 00 > Title: A Summary of Various Mechanisms Deployed at L-Root for > the Identification of Anycast Nodes > Creation date: 2013-03-25 > Group: Individual Submission > Number of pages: 16 > URL: > http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping-00.txt > Status: > http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping > Htmlized: > http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jabley-dnsop-anycast-mapping-00 > > > Abstract: > Anycast is a deployment technique commonly employed for > authoritative-only servers in the Domain Name System (DNS).
