KPNQwest ns.eu.net server.

As a lot of people are offering secondary services: may be it's a good idea
to place infrastructural services at IXP. IXP seem to be more stable than
any ISPs and often more neutral than ISPs.

Comments?

Hello,

DENIC runs currently several secondarys (not only DE but also for some
other TLDs) in different places worldwide. We are willing to offer
secondary service for other ccTLDs. But there will be because of
security/stability reasons a limit on the number of ccTLDs we want to run
on a single machine.

Hi Randy, hi Joao, dear routing-wg,

probably my Company (GATEL, AS13129) is able to host a secondary
server for the ccTLDs.

The question is rather what are the hardware "requirements" for the
secondary
server.

We have sufficient bandwidth capacity available and rack space as well.

Well done ! Congrats for the good ideas and coordination work.
