A Number of registrars and other service providers (http://www.dynip.com/ is
one) provide a "Dynamic DNS" service, whereby a domain name points to a
(usually) home computer's IP which has a dynamic IP. The DNS entry would have
a low TTL. When the IP changes the DNS is updated with the new IP. Users can
then host a website on a computer with a Dynamic IP.
I don't see this service listed in the "Legitimate uses of fast flux" section.
I haven't read all the messages on this list.
Is it not listed because it's not "fast-flux" because the changing IP usually
spans just a single ASN (and not multiple ASNs)?
If so, I think that is a small distinction so it should be listed to avoid
confusion that a Dynamic DNS service is somehow illegitimate.
