If glue records are required, they would be written like this:
nserver: ns1.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa 192.0.2.1 nserver: ns1.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa 2001:db8::1 nserver: ns2.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa 192.0.2.2 nserver: ns2.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa 2001:db8::2
While I agree with the first move, I do not see the beauty in the second. It would appear more natural to me to list all IP addresses on a single line after the name server's name.
AOL :-) Although I have never had to use glue in our reverse domain delegations (it is perhaps a bit perverse to give NSs names in the reverse tree at all), I have been trying to nudge our forward zone providers towards thinking of the glue IPs for one NS as a *set*, rather than denormalised in the style of Anand's text. Without any notable success so far... :-( -- Chris Thompson University of Cambridge Computing Service, Email: cet1@ucs.cam.ac.uk New Museums Site, Cambridge CB2 3QH, Phone: +44 1223 334715 United Kingdom.
