Just for your information: I.ROOT-SERVERS.NET, the root name server traditionally based in Stockholm, Sweden, has taken its first step outside the country, by deploying a clone in Helsinki, Finland, in cooperation with FICIX, the Finnish Internet Exchange. The Helsinki clone uses anycast and is announced from the same source AS (8674) as the one in Stockholm. The new systems are owned and administrated by Autonomica AB in Stockholm. More sites will follow this autumn. Best regards, /Lars-Johan Liman Manager of i.root-servers.net #---------------------------------------------------------------------- # Lars-Johan Liman, M.Sc. !
