[Nlnog] Fwd: Advisory — D-root is changing its IPv4 address on the 3rd of January.

[Job Snijders]

Hi,

TL;DR

D.root-servers.net gaat omnummeren van 128.8.10.90 naar 199.7.91.13. Op 3 
januari 2013 veranderen ze de boel, maar het oude adres zal nog 6 maanden
blijven werken. Het "D-ROOT" IPv6 adres zal niet veranderen.

Het kan geen kwaad om in het nieuwe jaar even te controleren of je resolvers
een correcte root.hints hebben. 

Met vriendelijke groeten,

Job
