[AusNOG] Reverse DNS Recommendations

[Beeson, Ayden]

RFC 2182:
Secondary servers must be placed at both topologically and geographically dispersed locations on the Internet, to minimise the likelihood of a single failure disabling all of them.

That is, secondary servers should be at geographically distant locations, so it is unlikely that events like power loss, etc, will disrupt all of them simultaneously.  They should also be connected to the net via quite diverse paths.  This means that the failure of any one link, or of routing within some segment of the network (such as a service provider) will not make all of the servers unreachable.

Though I don't think this is what Jacob meant, other email coming for that.

Thanks,
Ayden Beeson
