Checks

  • i
    .de 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
    .de is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
  • i
    Registration data not available
    No registration data via RDAP: the registry of .de offers no RDAP service. Many ccTLD registries don't offer RDAP; check the registry's WHOIS instead.

Checks

  • i
    2 nameservers
    Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: dns.hosteurope.de, dns2.hosteurope.de.
    #6
  • ✓ Parent and zone agree #7
    The parent delegation and the zone's NS records list the same nameservers.
  • ✓ Glue present and correct #8
    Glue is published for the nameservers inside the zone: dns.hosteurope.de, dns2.hosteurope.de.
  • ✓ All names resolve #9
    Every nameserver name has an address and is not an alias.
  • i
    One address family in one network
    all IPv6 addresses are in 2a01:488::/48, while the other address family is spread over several networks.
    #10
  • i
    All nameservers in one AS
    All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS20773 (GODADDY - Host Europe GmbH, DE): 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 .de
    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.

    No EDNS
    These nameservers don't support EDNS(0), needed for DNSSEC and answers larger than 512 bytes: dns.hosteurope.de (80.237.128.156), dns2.hosteurope.de (80.237.136.144).
    #20

    Very low TTLs
    These records have a TTL below 5m, causing extra queries and slower lookups: A (1m). Low TTLs are useful just before a planned change. The NS TTL at the parent is 1d and in the zone 10m1s; resolvers may use either.
    #32
  • ✓ No CNAME at the apex #33
    The zone apex has no CNAME record.
  • ✓ No wildcard #34

    No CAA records
    Without CAA records any certificate authority may issue certificates for this domain. A CAA record limits issuance to the CAs you use.
