I've recently been investigating having a local slave copy of the root zone on a caching/forwarder type server. I've even put the local slave copy of the root zone into a separate view accessed via a different loopback address. (An limited example of this exists on the ISC site)
My question is this. Is there any benefit to also hosting local slave copies of arpa., in-addr.arpa., and ip6.arpa.? Although FreeBSD now comes with unbound as it's default DNS software, installing bind yields an example named.conf which floats the concept of the local slave copies of the above zones. (That is what led me down this path...) Anyone care to weigh in? Regards, Bob
