• ✓ 4 nameservers #6

  Delegated to dns1.p01.nsone.net, dns2.p01.nsone.net, dns3.p01.nsone.net, dns4.p01.nsone.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 2 IPv4 /24s and 2 IPv6 /48s.
• i

  All nameservers in one AS

  All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS62597 (NSONE - NSONE Inc, 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 .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.

8 of 8 addresses answer authoritatively

• ✓ All authoritative #15

  Every responding nameserver answers authoritatively for the zone.
• ✓ No recursion #16

  The nameservers do not answer recursive queries for other domains.
