Well said Greg! Leave it to the application to decide which is the best* address in the list of addresses returned from a DNS lookup. IMO the DNS (mostly) provides name-address mapping info and it’s up to whoever receives that info to decide how it gets processed and acted on. This is not a job for BIND or other DNS servers. * For some definition of best -- Visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list ISC funds the development of this software with paid support subscriptions.
