Brian Kantor,
Concerning hosts with no DNS entries can only use the IPIP mesh system.
Couldn't this be tweaked at UCSD to allow only 44net traffic for hosts
with no DNS entries? Thus letting BGP'd 44 hosts be able to
communicate with IPIP 44 hosts regardless of DNS entries?
And of course if there is a DNS entry then (like now) allow
general/all inbound traffic.
Just a thought, not sure if it raises any other issues.
