I think the big difference is I want to use IP address directly, and this is a
rather reasonable
demand when you manage a large cluster and don't want to rely DNS heavily.
In the company I worked before, we setup DNS forward and reverse RR, and
prepare DNS servers
in different IDCs in case that intranet split keep us from login even we have
backup links.
That DNS setup is a huge burden for us.
BTW, why no IP address prefix to realm mapping for mit kerberos?
