Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) M. Andrews Request for Comments: 7793 ISC BCP: 163 May 2016 Category: Best Current Practice ISSN: 2070-1721

              Adding 100.64.0.0/10 Prefixes to the
             IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry

Abstract

RFC 6598 specifies that "Reverse DNS queries for Shared Address Space addresses [100.64.0.0/10] MUST NOT be forwarded to the global DNS infrastructure."

This document formally directs IANA to add the associated zones to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry" to prevent such queries from accidentally leaking to the global DNS infrastructure.

Introduction

RFC6598 specifies that "Reverse DNS queries for Shared Address Space addresses [100.64.0.0/10] MUST NOT be forwarded to the global DNS infrastructure." RFC6303 provides guidance on handling such queries.

This document directs the IANA to add the IPv4 reverse zones corresponding to 100.64.0.0/10, a netblock reserved in RFC6598, to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry" established in RFC6303.

Unlike the addresses described in RFC1918, which are not expected to be seen by other parties, the addresses defined by RFC6598 are expected to be seen by parties other than those deploying the addresses. Therefore, it is more crucial that recursive nameservers default to serving these zones locally.

Changes to the IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zones Registry

IANA has added the zones listed in "RFC 6598 Zones" (Section 2.1) to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry".

IANA Considerations

Per this document, IANA has added the zones listed in "RFC 6598 Zones" (Section 2.1) to the "IPv4 Locally-Served DNS Zone Registry".

IANA is reminded that an insecure delegation for these zones is required for compliance with RFC6303 to break the DNSSEC chain of trust.

Security Considerations

This document does not present additional security risks to the Internet than those described in RFC6303 and RFC6598.
