wow, last time I checked root servers(several weeks ago, they was unreacheble-not operational.. now looks great: F: 11 2001:500::1035 (2001:500::1035) 192.812 ms 192.25 ms 192.513 ms only one BGP path to 2001:500::/48 prefix ;( anyway it works! : H: unreachible, no BGP paths to 13 ASn, maybe /48 get's filtered? and what about anycast implementation for root servers? It would be great in perfomance, dunno in security & how stable it could be in attacs.. I'll try to add F to my bind root servers ;) Andrius On Tue, 24 Jun 2003, Carlos Friacas wrote:
Hello,
As you may have noticed "M", located at Tokyo was assigned 2001:0DC3::/32 from APNIC last week, with the status "ASSIGNED PORTABLE".
Looking at http://www.root-servers.org, i see there are two root-servers located in the RIPE region that could get a /32 from RIPE, provided that RIPE would adopt the same policy than APNIC in this case:
- "I" at Stockholm, Sweden; - "K" at London, England.
Regarding the other 10 dns root servers, 2 of them already have IPv6 assignments from ARIN's microallocation pool ("F" and "H"), which is in fact a different approach. As we speak im getting around 400ms rtt to "H" and about 240 rtt to "F". Anybody (around Europe) is getting significantly better values?
Any comments?
