There have been a number of questions that have been fielded
wrt the EP.NET domain and traceroute failures within that
domain. For your edification, here is a brief note on the EP.NET
domain.
EP.NET operated as a service by the RA for exchange points around
the globe. Any exchange point may become part of the EP.NET domain.
The default assignment algorithm follows. The next level
identifies the specific exchange. The next level identifies
the attaching organization.
So, the default for BillsBait&SushiShop (BBSS) at MAE-WEST is:
bbss.mae-west.ep.net
When BBSS attachs to the AADS NAP, the default name is:
bbss.aads.ep.net
Selection of provider specific names is encouraged.
So when BBSS gets around to it, they may change the names to
something like this:
mae-west.bbss.org
aads.bbss.org
--bill
