Question: [Apologies for asking something that strikes me as most likely obvious, but just outside my grasp today - and of course, I haven't been able to find similar situations to borrow from on the web]
Within a private /16 in.addr zone, I've got two /24 blocks of (contiguous) DHCP issued addresses. Presently DHCP updates these addresses which are intermingled with all other static addresses in the /16 space. For the purposes of a cleaner zone file and less traffic between slave servers, what's the best technique to break out the two dhcp issued address spaces? My presumption is that the /16 zone remain a single zone file, with sub-delegation of those two /24 blocks. As I've only done delegation to other name servers, is this both possible/recommended to be done in one bind instance? Ideally, delegating a /23 seems to strike me as the right thing to do. Of course, my blocks don't fall on a /23 boundary. *eye roll* For a concrete example: 10.0.0.0/16 is presently handled by a single zone file. 10.1.3.0/24 is DHCP issued 10.1.4.0/24 is DHCP issued What do the experts recommend as the best method to split these into 1-3 different zone files on the same name server. Thanks much for the assistance, jc ___________________________________________ JOHN C.
