Is there a standard for the DNS hostnames of router interfaces (i.e. PtP.origin.destination.bandwidth.layer2.domain)
We use <routername>-<interface>.<site>.bbc.co.uk e.g. rt0-POS-7-0.thny.bbc.co.uk Others prefer to brag about the fact that they have a 2Mbit PVC on an OC192 fibre and put the fibre bandwidth in the name too. I don't see that this achieves anything other than other network operators looking at it and thinking "Yeah, right..."
