Client IP information To Be Included In DNS Requests--A New Commercial Project

Written by Ironpaper | Feb 1, 2010 7:51:15 PM

Google will be teaming up with Neustar UltraDNS to work on a proposed extension to DNS. The concept of the project would make it so that the first three quarters of a user's IP address would be included in a DNS request. Each DNS request would then have a built-in geographic awareness, which would improve the responsiveness and accuracy of the Domain Name System.
