  • ✓ 6 nameservers #6
    Delegated to a1-205.akam.net, a14-66.akam.net, a4-65.akam.net, a5-65.akam.net, a6-66.akam.net, a7-66.akam.net.
  • ✓ 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 6 IPv4 /24s and 6 IPv6 /48s.
  • i
    All nameservers in one AS
    All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS21342 (AKAMAI-ASN2 - Akamai International B.V., NL): 12 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 .net
    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 (20s). Low TTLs are useful just before a planned change. The NS TTL at the parent is 2d and in the zone 2h; resolvers may use either.
    #32
  • ✓ No CNAME at the apex #33
    The zone apex has no CNAME record.
  • i
    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.
    #34
  • i
    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.
