My advice to enterprises is to consider the following: Let the value to your enterprise of resolving the new domains be X Let the value at risk due to resolving the new domains be Y Let the cost of disabling new domain resolution be Z If Y > X-Z then the obvious choice is to turn off resolution of new domains. Since X and Z are both zero the choice is obvious. _______________________________________________ dns-operations mailing list dns-operations@lists.dns-oarc.net https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-operations dns-jobs mailing list https://lists.dns-oarc.net/mailman/listinfo/dns-jobs
