no. thanks for asking, this is an important distinction. only a delegation-mostly or delegation-only zone would benefit from in-zone name server names. for the rest, i think we get a far greater benefit from sharing name server names among large numbers of zones, than we could get by including name server AAAA and A RRsets in the delegation. -- Paul Vixie _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list [email protected] https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
