Re: [dnsop] DNS Anycast revisited (fwd)

["Patrick W. Gilmore" <patrick () ianai net>]

Sorry if it was not clear, but my post had _nothing_ to do with "CDNs".

I was just talking about people setting up anycast name servers, each  
of which pointed at a different HTTP server (or other service), to  
spread load.  In many cases, the two servers are the same.

No, it disproves.  You say "it will not / cannot work".  Showing you  
a working instance in production absolutely disproves your statement.

You can say "it might break", but that's a different statement.
