It's probably not a good idea to descend into flames on this here. This is certainly accepted common practice, but it does cause a lot of operational problems as well, not the least of which is that it means ISPs have to operate firewalls to block traffic from their customers. I don't think we are in a position to advise against this practice, but it's entirely orthogonal to the PTR record question, so we shouldn't factor it into the discussion. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
