  • !
    NS sets differ
    The nameservers at the parent and in the zone should be the same. Only in the zone: ns5.linode.com. ns1.linode.com, ns2.linode.com, ns3.linode.com, ns4.linode.com, ns5.linode.com report NS ns1.linode.com ns2.linode.com ns3.linode.com ns4.linode.com ns5.linode.com.
    #7
  • ✓ 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 (AS21342 (AKAMAI-ASN2 - Akamai International B.V., NL): 10 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.

  • ✓ Zone transfers refused #18
    No nameserver allows a zone transfer to the public.
  • ✗
    No DNS over TCP
    DNS over TCP is required (RFC 7766); without it, large answers such as DNSSEC responses fail. Not answering over TCP: ns3.linode.com (92.123.95.3): read tcp 46.225.38.91:58294->92.123.95.3:53: i/o timeout.
