Hi Dima,

Since you are from Sprint and we're talking about DNS... When does Sprint
plan to fix the slashes, "/", in the names for your router interfaces?
Newer resolver libraries refuse to return hostnames with invalid
characters.

This obviously isn't a critical issue, but it is annoying when none of the
Sprint hops in a traceroute resolve to a name.

Thanks.
