Adding sub domain based routes in Zend framework

Question

I am newbie to Zend framework, I am using .ini file to add routes in my application.

I have 2 routes for different modules which

resources.router.r

Hi after much browsing in the web I came up with this solution for my problem

resources.router.routes.www.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Hostname"
resources.router.routes.www.route = ":module.findchennai.com"
resources.router.routes.www.defaults.module = "www"
resources.router.routes.www.chains.index.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route"
resources.router.routes.www.chains.index.route = ":controller/:action/*"
resources.router.routes.www.chains.index.defaults.controller = "index"
resources.router.routes.www.chains.index.defaults.action = "index"

The above code maps the module with sub domain

resources.router.routes.news.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Hostname"
resources.router.routes.news.route = "news.findchennai.com"
resources.router.routes.news.defaults.module = "news"

resources.router.routes.edu.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Hostname"
resources.router.routes.edu.route = "education.findchennai.com"
resources.router.routes.edu.defaults.module = "education"

resources.router.routes.edu.chains.list.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route"
resources.router.routes.edu.chains.list.route = ":categ/:page"
resources.router.routes.edu.chains.list.defaults.controller = "index"
resources.router.routes.edu.chains.list.defaults.action = "category"
resources.router.routes.edu.chains.list.defaults.page = 1

resources.router.routes.news.chains.list.type = "Zend_Controller_Router_Route"
resources.router.routes.news.chains.list.route = ":categ/:page"
resources.router.routes.news.chains.list.defaults.controller = "index"
resources.router.routes.news.chains.list.defaults.action = "category"
resources.router.routes.news.chains.list.defaults.page = 1

This solves the problem I faced and now could map correctly to the following urls

http://news.mysite.com/27-08-09/sample.html
http://education.mysite.com/27-08-09/sample.html

Still if some one knows how to optimise the above code further, Please let me know.
