[DNSOP] Re: IPN and CLA RRTYPEs to support Bundle Protocol RFC9171

[Mark Andrews <[e-mail]>]

An obvious correction “LTP--v6” -> “LTP-v6”

For IPN why isn’t the wire format two network 64 bit integers?  That is 16 bytes.  Also 2^64-1 is 20 characters so 2 64-bit numbers separated by “." is 41 characters.  It’s not clear where then 21 comes from.

Limit CLA characters to Letter Digit Hyphen rather than the full ASCII range.

It was designed for deep space networking, however has network segments and application uses which overlay the terrestrial Internet.  There will arise similar use cases on the Moon (in the reasonably near future) and Mars whereby low latency, constant connectivity exists, thereby making use of DNS in these situations viable.
