    NS sets differ
    The nameservers at the parent and in the zone should be the same. Only in the zone: wvzmsim1. a1-184.akam.net, a18-67.akam.net, a20-64.akam.net, a4-65.akam.net, a5-66.akam.net, a9-67.akam.net report NS a1-184.akam.net a18-67.akam.net a20-64.akam.net a4-65.akam.net a5-66.akam.net a9-67.akam.net wvzmsim1.
    #7
  • ✓ No glue needed #8
    All nameservers are outside the zone, so no glue records are needed.
  • ✗
    Nameserver names don't resolve
    These nameservers have no A or AAAA record, so they can't be reached (lame delegation): wvzmsim1.
    #9
  • ✓ 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.
