Indeed, folks are talking about "ipv6 whitelist" right now; and I guess they're referring to the same thing this I-D discusses... > What's the conflict here? What does "ipv6 whitelist" mean to the average reader? Most of the links I found were considerably less helpful than the I-D itself. Hopefully they are discussing what this I-D specifies, but I'm not entirely certain... " " When implemented, DNS whitelisting in practice means that a domain's " authoritative DNS will return a AAAA resource record to DNS recursive " resolvers [RFC1035] on the whitelist, while returning no AAAA " resource records to DNS resolvers which are not on the whitelist. As I read it, this says that certain DNS servers will be configured to _not_ return AAAA records to AAAA queries by default. This strikes me as a really-strange transition mechanism. Color me thoroghly confused. -- John Leslie <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
