Hi Matthias-Christian, thanks for giving us a try! The reasoning behind naming each interface was mainly to stay consistent with the "remotes" section. But to be honest, there's not much added value in doing that, other than allowing user to specify 'via' for a remote using a symbolic name. If we would allow multiple interfaces per name, Knot wouldn't able to tell which interface did you mean. Downside is that it gets tedious when you have many interfaces (and/or using dual stack). But we talked recently about making the configuration user friendly and general idea is to stop naming interfaces (thus reducing clutter) and allowing multiple addresses for remotes. Or make groups of remotes, but you get the idea. We're still weighing the options, so I find your remarks very valuable :) Kind regards, Marek -- Marek Vavruša Knot DNS CZ.NIC Labs http://www.knot-dns.cz ------------------------------------------- Americká 23, 120 00 Praha 2, Czech Republic WWW: http://labs.nic.cz http://www.nic.cz On 24 January 2013 02:43, Matthias-Christian Ott <ott(a)mirix.org> wrote:
