Consolidated reverse zone in-addr.arpa.cam.ac.uk

2010-11-26 - News - Chris Thompson

The sample nameserver configuration at

http://jackdaw.cam.ac.uk/ipreg/nsconfig/sample.named.conf

has been updated to include the zone in-addr.arpa.cam.ac.uk. Until recently this was contained within the cam.ac.uk zone, but it is now a separate (unsigned) delegated zone. It currently provides the reverse lookup records for IP addresses in the range 128.232.[128-223].x but we hope to extend that to cover the whole of 128.232.[128-255].x eventually.

A description of the zone and our plans for it can be found at

Please be reassured that there will be further announcements here (and probably elsewhere) before the extension to cover 128.232.[224-255].x is implemented.
