Hi all, Our research group has been looking at assessing anycast usage. (We have a technical report about our early findings at ftp://ftp.isi.edu/isi-pubs/tr-671.pdf if you're interested.)
One result of that work is that we think additional information would make anycast dianosis much easier---we'd like to use in-band class-IN TXT records to augment what is done today with class-CHAOS records today (RFC-4892). In discussing our findings and proposed approach with ISC, they recommended we put together an internet-draft that documents our proposal. We have a draft of our proposal with rationale at http://www.isi.edu/~xunfan/research/draft-anycast-diagnostics.txt We'd love to get feedback from the working group, and to know if this sort of diagnosis would be something appropriate for the WG to take up. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
