Systems, methods and apparatus for managing network address information. In some embodiments, an appropriate address authority is queried to obtain information useful for address mapping. For example, the address authority may be selected by determining whether an address to be mapped is within one or more blocks of addresses for which the address authority is authoritative. In some further embodiments, address mapping information may be distributed from an address authority to a network device, so that the network device may perform address mapping using locally available information. |
