Checks

  • i
    .de is a country-code TLD (ccTLD)

    #1
  • ✓ TLD delegated and signed #2
    .de is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
  • i
    Registration data not available
    No registration data via RDAP: the registry of .de offers no RDAP service. Many ccTLD registries don't offer RDAP; check the registry's WHOIS instead.

Checks

  • ✓ 3 nameservers #6
    Delegated to ns1.evolver.de, ns2.evolver.de, ns3.evolver.de.
  • ✓ 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 3 IPv4 /24s and 2 IPv6 /48s.
  • ✓ 3 autonomous systems #11
    The nameservers are spread over: AS197540 (netcup-AS - netcup GmbH, DE): 2 addresses; AS21413 (ENVIA-TEL-AS - Envia Tel GmbH, DE): 1 address; AS24940 (HETZNER-AS - Hetzner Online GmbH, DE): 2 addresses.
  • i
    All nameserver names under .de
    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
  • i
    Partly IPv6
    These nameservers have no IPv6 address: ns1.evolver.de.
