  • i
    2 nameservers
    Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: ns1.netsolmail.com, ns2.netsolmail.com.
    #6
  • !
    NS sets differ
    The nameservers at the parent and in the zone should be the same. Only in the zone: ns83.worldnic.com. ns1.netsolmail.com, ns2.netsolmail.com report NS ns1.netsolmail.com ns2.netsolmail.com ns83.worldnic.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 0 IPv6 /48s.
  • i
    All nameservers in one AS
    All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS13335 (CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US): 3 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
  • !
    No IPv6
    None of the nameservers has an IPv6 address, so IPv6-only resolvers can't reach them.
    #13

Checks

  • ✓ All respond #14
    All 3 nameserver addresses answered.
  • ✗
    Lame delegation
    These nameservers don't answer authoritatively for the zone, so resolvers ignore them: ns83.worldnic.com (162.159.26.131): REFUSED, authoritative=false.
    #15
  • ✓ No recursion #16
    The nameservers do not answer recursive queries for other domains.
  • !
    Software version disclosed
    These nameservers report their software version via version.bind/version.server, which helps attackers find known vulnerabilities: ns1.netsolmail.com: "2026.10.8"; ns2.netsolmail.com: "2026.10.8"; ns83.worldnic.com: "2026.10.8". Hide or replace the version string.
    #17
  • ✓ 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: ns83.worldnic.com (162.159.26.131): .
    #19
  • ✓ EDNS supported #20
    All nameservers support EDNS(0).
  • ✓ Public addresses #21
    All nameserver addresses are publicly routable.
