  • i
    .fr 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
    .fr is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
  • ✓ Expires on 2027-08-11 #3
    The registration is valid until 2027-08-11 (293 days).
  • ✓ Transfer locked #4
    Registry status: server update prohibited, server transfer prohibited, server delete prohibited, server recover prohibited.
  • ✓ Registry and delegation match #5
    The nameservers registered at the registry are the ones published in DNS.

Checks

  • ✓ 4 nameservers #6
    Delegated to ns-cloud-e1.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-e2.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-e3.googledomains.com, ns-cloud-e4.googledomains.com.
  • ✓ 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.
  • i
    One address family in one network
    all IPv6 addresses are in 2001:4860:4802::/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 (AS15169 (GOOGLE - Google LLC, US): 8 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 .com
    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.

    Very low TTLs
    These records have a TTL below 5m, causing extra queries and slower lookups: A (1m), MX (1m). Low TTLs are useful just before a planned change. The NS TTL at the parent is 1h and in the zone 6h; resolvers may use either.
