- NewJazz 2y agoThis RFC is recommending a default, non-unique domain for residential routers to ship with. If you have a domain of your own, by all means use it. Most residential network operators don't.
- betaby 2y agoWhat exactly does that mean? 'example.com' is registered to IANA since 1992.
- gl-prod 2y agoOC replaced the real domain with example.com. Could have used int.google.com.
- throwanem 2y agoIt means grandparent commenter ain't sayin': > where example.com is a domain I've had for 30 years (That domain has that reservation specifically for use in arbitrary examples, as here.)
- icedchai 2y agoIt was a placeholder... an example. (You know, the documented purpose of example.com!) I am not posting my actual domain here.
- trallnag 2y agoSo public DNS contains records pointing to private IPs?
- evandrofisico 2y agoI do the same with my personal domain. Combined with a wildcard cert, all my internal services are on valid certificates with ease.
