ASN Domain for rDNS
I've been seeing more and more carriers(and even small ISPs) using asXXXX.net as their domain for rDNS on IP space. What are the pros and cons for doing this versus using your primary business domain name? Keefe John
I'd say this is mostly for whitelabelling reason rather than a technical one? Keefe John:

Honestly, it looks pretty and you can see the ASN in the traceroute from windows/linux standard traceroute commands. I don't think it's for white label as most ASN's have a company name in their WHOIS on ARIN/RIPE/ETC. -----Original Message----- From: NANOG [mailto:nanog-bounces@nanog.org] On Behalf Of Fred Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2014 4:36 PM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: ASN Domain for rDNS I'd say this is mostly for whitelabelling reason rather than a technical one?

Short answer: I just like doing it. Long answer: It allows me to create as many hosts on a segregated domain instead of making my company DNS zone 3000 records long. -----Original Message----- From: NANOG [mailto:nanog-bounces@nanog.org] On Behalf Of Fred Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2014 4:36 PM To: nanog@nanog.org Subject: Re: ASN Domain for rDNS I'd say this is mostly for whitelabelling reason rather than a technical one?

And considering browsers use domains to define whether to send cookies or not along a request, not having access customers on the same domain of your website is a security benefit. Rubens On Wed, Dec 10, 2014 at 3:13 AM, Kate Gerry <kate@quadranet.com> wrote:

We use just .as domain, like our 29632.as ;) On 10.12.14 02:30, Keefe John wrote:

Just been using the .net version of our company domain for router/interface IPs. Also own the AS<n>.com/net and <ASN>.as though, primarily to not get squatted on. On 12/10/2014 午前 09:30, Keefe John wrote:

When you are forced to change your name because of chapter 11, acquisition, rebranding, trademark challenge or a sudden need to distance yourself from previous senior management and their intense hatred of all customers, it's nice not to have to change all your reverse DNS. Joe
