Set address of whois service

marlinpierce opened this issue · comments

Our network admins want us to use "whois.iana.org" for our whois service, and that this IP address they opened in the firewall. It would be good to have a feature to set the default address for the whois service for all queries. Currently this can kind of be done for IPv4 with a mask of "0.0.0.0/1".

@marlinpierce I am confused. whois.iana.org is not a centralized whois service. If you use it for example to obtain information for example.domains it will not return an appropriate information.

Closing due to no follow up.
