Motivation
There doesn't seem to be any way to test a newly launched ZFND seeder from Zebra.
We'd need to specify its IP address, and the canonical ZFND seeder DNS name, like:
But Zebra only uses
tokio
's basic DNS resolver API.Design
We could add
dev.testnet.seeder.zfnd.org
anddev.mainnet.seeder.zfnd.org
DNS names, so we can test development versions of the seeders before deployment.(We'd need to change the seeder to serve the
dev.*
zones in addition to{test,main}net.seeder.zfnd.org
. And then add those zones to our DNS records pointing at a fixed Google Cloud IP.)Related Work
