"In-bailiwick" vs. "out-of-bailiwick" refers to the relation of an NSDNAME in a delegation NS record to the name of the zone containing the delegation NS record. This can be objectively determined without ever sending a DNS query to the nameserver identified by the NSDNAME value. Or it can refer to an evaluation of RRset owner names in a nameserver's response message that a resolver performs to exclude poison (sometimes called "scrubbing" but I see this is such a slang term that it hasn't made it into "DNS Terminology"). But it seems weird to extend the bailiwick term to a situation where either incorrect delegation data exists in the DNS or a nameserver is misconfigured. -- Robert Edmonds _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
