I now realise I should have made this even more explicit: ns.ripe.net and ns-v6.ripe.net are the same server, and have the same IP addresses. It's near-impossible for us to tell whether someone is resolving ns-v6.ripe.net, and then sending queries to its addresses. However, having two names makes our pre-delegation and provisioning somewhat more complex, and so we wish to simplify things. We did check that the name ns-v6.ripe.net was not listed as the target of any NS record in any delegations or apices, to ensure that reverse DNS resolution is not affected. Regards, Anand
