Checks

i

.nl is a country-code TLD (ccTLD)

Country-code TLD: governed by its local registry under national policy, not by an ICANN contract. Registrar accreditation, dispute resolution and RDAP/WHOIS rules are set by the registry.

#1
✓ TLD delegated and signed #2

.nl is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
i

Expiry date not published

The registry does not publish the expiry date in RDAP. Check it with your registrar.

#3
i

No transfer lock

The domain has no transfer lock (status: active). A registrar lock protects against unauthorized transfers.

#4
✓ Registry and delegation match #5

The nameservers registered at the registry are the ones published in DNS.

2 nameservers

Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: ns1.dictu.nl, ns2.dictu.nl.

#6
✓ Parent and zone agree #7

The parent delegation and the zone's NS records list the same nameservers.
✓ No glue needed #8

All nameservers are outside the zone, so no glue records are needed.
✓ All names resolve #9

Every nameserver name has an address and is not an alias.
✓ Nameservers in different networks #10

The nameservers are spread over 2 IPv4 /24s and 2 IPv6 /48s.
i

All nameservers in one AS

All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS203396 (MinEZ-DICTU - Ministerie van Economische Zaken, NL): 4 addresses). An outage or attack on that network affects all nameservers; large anycast providers mitigate this, but a secondary DNS provider adds independence.

#11
i

All nameserver names under .nl

All nameserver names are under one TLD, so a problem with that TLD also makes the nameservers unreachable. Some operators use names under two TLDs for extra resilience.

#12
✓ All reachable over IPv6 #13

Every nameserver has an IPv6 address.

NSEC3 with extra iterations or salt

NSEC3 uses 10 iterations and a 10-byte salt. RFC 9276 recommends 0 iterations and no salt: extra iterations cost resolvers CPU and add no real protection, and some validators treat high counts as insecure.

TTLs: A 5m, AAAA 5m, MX 3h, NS 3h. The NS TTL at the parent is 1h and in the zone 3h; resolvers may use either.
✓ No CNAME at the apex #33

The zone apex has no CNAME record.

Wildcard record

A random name under the zone resolves, so there is a wildcard (*) record. Typos and non-existent hosts resolve too, which can confuse mail and certificate checks.
