Keep in mind that even though the tier-2 servers distribute the dns.opennic.glue zone, the tier-1 servers are also valid sources and will likely try to notify on it as well.

I can vouch for 173.160.58.202 (corresponds to 216.87.84.211) and all of 2001:470:f032:10::* (corresponds to 2001:470:8388:10::*). I have two IP blocks, but I only officially list one of them. These IP's may send out DNS data if my other connection is busy, but it does not listen for incoming connections. You can safely whitelist or ignore those IP's, it won't matter either way.

This is interesting, because this one is mine, and each zone I serve
explictly specifies "notify no." Which zones exactly are you
receiving notifies for?
