Re: [drinks] request for input



Deborah,

 

I support the approach of using a Route Object.  DNS is not the only protocol that is used today to access interconnect routing information and DNS/ENUM may not survive as the long term query-response protocol for accessing interconnect routing data.  The one thing we can be sure of is that new protocols will be developed by the IETF as we move forward as an industry.

The protocol design team has been working on a data model and protocol for the registry provisioning interface.

We have associated with each public identifier routing information in the form of resolution answers on the name server.  Initially we looked at specific types of routing info – such as NS and NAPTR Resource Records. We have heard feedback that this is too DNS-centric. We are discussing collapsing these into a “generic” Route Object. This may lead to a long set of attributes, one would be route type, but many others would be optional and may only apply to a given route type.

We would appreciate some feedback –does it make sense to collapse into a generic Route Object? Other suggestions are welcome.

 

Thank you. Please reply to the list.
