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.
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.

-------------------------------------------------- I am -really- looking forward to this. I've just completed the 3q2001 audit of the in-addr.arpa tree. Its grown by over 10,000 entries in the previous quarter, from 181,544 entries to 192,015 entries. http://www.isi.edu/~bmanning/in-addr-audit.html --bill
