  1. RIPE NCC DNS Architecture(for ccTLD secondarying) Nameserver Planning for the long term. Bruce Campbell <bruce@ripe.net>

  2. Problem Outline • Policy of secondarying ccTLDs: • We’ll secondary anyone’s ccTLD. • Single name (ns.ripe.net): • Single machine. • Memory footprint issues (lots of large zones). • Can’t renumber as need signoff from far too many parties; individual redelegating for performance (eg .de) takes too long. • DNSSEC is scary: • Increases individual zone footprint significantly. • Machine has finite possible memory size.

  3. Solution • Shift away from single name (and address): • Still single machine, but lots of IP aliases. • Lots of glue records in root zone. • Can ‘go IPv6’ on a per ccTLD basis, not ‘all or nothing’. • No renumbering required when zone grows beyond machine’s capacity. • Can drop in a new machine and remove IP alias on the previous machine at any time without needing editing of the root zone (IANA).

  4. Renaming what to what? • Old name: ‘ns.ripe.net’ • New name: ‘ns-XX.ripe.net’ • ‘XX’ is the ISO3166 country code – ‘ns-af.ripe.net’ • Separate address for each one – eg ‘193.0.12.1’, ‘193.0.12.248’ • Good chance to talk to IANA • They don’t bite.

  5. Names to delegate to: • ns-BI.ripe.net • 193.0.12.24 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:24 • ns-BJ.ripe.net • 193.0.12.36 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:36 • ns-LK.ripe.net • 193.0.12.208 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:208 • ns-NP.ripe.net • 193.0.12.154 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:154 • ns-TH.ripe.net • 193.0.12.219 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:219 • ns-UY.ripe.net • 193.0.12.237 , 2001:610:240:0:53:cc:12:237

  6. Summary and Questions • Trying to avoid ‘last minute’ renumbering and possible frustrations. • Easy upgrade path for NCC’s hardware as the total size of zones approaches upper memory limit on a single machine. • Lets the NCC do maintenance work without interrupting service (IP aliases can be moved between spare machines easily) • IPv6 connectivity for your zone with no pain to you.
