[apnic-announce] IN-ADDR.ARPA Progress Report (fwd)
[Note "reply-to:" field]
Please note that the expected impact is extremely minimal to APNIC
Networks. All APNIC reverse /8s are already delegated to the APNIC
nameservers.

Subject: IN-ADDR.ARPA Progress Report
Goal:
Reduce the size of the IN-ADDR.ARPA zone file. This file will be reduced
in size by only containing name servers for /8 networks.
Completed Steps:
Apr 2001 - Established relationships with 2 companies to provide
independent server networks for all ARIN IN-ADDR zone files.
Jun 2001 - Released a new IN-ADDR.ARPA zone file generator to correct
existing erroneous data.
Next Step:
July 9, 2001 - ARIN will begin revising the IN-ADDR.ARPA zone for those
direct /8 delegations to ARIN. These /8 zone files will be serviced by
the two ARIN nameserver networks. These changes will not affect the
performance of reverse lookup in any of the IPv4 Address space.
