  2 nameservers

  Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: ns1.vps10197.zxcs.nl, ns2.vps10197.zxcs.nl.

  #6
• ✓ 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 one network

  all IPv4 addresses are in 185.220.174.0/24; all IPv6 addresses are in 2a06:2ec0:ded1::/48. A single network failure takes all nameservers down; RFC 2182 recommends topologically separate networks (anycast setups are an exception).

  #10
• i

  All nameservers in one AS

  All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS206281 (AS-ZXCS - Stichting DIGI NL, NL): 4 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 .nl

  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.

4 of 4 addresses answer authoritatively

Found

Checks

• ✓ All respond #14

  All 4 nameserver addresses answered.
• ✓ All authoritative #15

  Every responding nameserver answers authoritatively for the zone.
• ✓ 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.vps10197.zxcs.nl: "9.11.4-P2-RedHat-9.11.4-26.P2.el7_9.16.tuxcare.els6"; ns2.vps10197.zxcs.nl: "9.11.4-P2-RedHat-9.11.4-26.P2.el7_9.16.tuxcare.els6". Hide or replace the version string.

  #17
• ✓ Zone transfers refused #18

  No nameserver allows a zone transfer to the public.
• ✓ TCP supported #19

  All nameservers answer over TCP.
• ✓ EDNS supported #20

  All nameservers support EDNS(0).
• ✓ Public addresses #21

  All nameserver addresses are publicly routable.
