Hi, when one end-customer has been using for example /24 IPv4 allocation for a while and returns this(for example changes an ISP) to LIR, then are there some good practices before handing out this same /24 to a new customer? I guess LIR should:
1) remove all the DNS PTR records, classless of classful delegations 2) check if some of the IP addresses are in DNSBL(maybe the previous customer was a spammer). Example with 93.184.216.0/24: $ for ip in {0..255}.216.184.93;\ > do for addr in \ > cbl.abuseat.org \ > dnsbl.inps.de \ > no-more-funn.moensted.dk \ > dnsbl.sorbs.net \ > bl.spamcannibal.org \ > bl.spamcop.net \ > psbl.surriel.com \ > dnsrbl.swinog.ch; \ > do dig @8.8.8.8 "$ip"."$addr" +short | grep -q "^127.0.0." && \ > echo "DNSBL-Alarm: $ip is listed on $addr"; done; done $ Anything else? regards, Martin
