Just noticed this (and why terminology is a problem): On 5/3/18, 17:25, "Mark Andrews" <[email protected]> wrote:
>Start removing lame delegation ... Are we talking about "lame servers" or "lame delegations"? If the latter, is a "delegation" a single NS / glue record or a the set of NS records and associated glue for the owning domain name? I've been "trained" to think of lame servers, not the entire delegation of a name, when thinking about this kind of maintenance activity. I've been looking through documents and find, for example, "DNS Resolver MIB Extensions" in May 1994 using the term "Lame Delegation" while "Negative Caching of DNS Queries (DNS NCACHE)" in March 1998 using "lame server." I.e., the documents are flip-flopping. I still need more time to trawl the RFCs. Apparently I haven't kept my cache of them around. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
