    2 nameservers
    Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: ns3431.hostgator.com, ns3432.hostgator.com.
    #6
  • !
    NS sets differ
    The nameservers at the parent and in the zone should be the same. Only at the parent: ns3431.hostgator.com, ns3432.hostgator.com; only in the zone: ns6359.hostgator.com, ns6360.hostgator.com. ns3431.hostgator.com, ns3432.hostgator.com, ns6359.hostgator.com, ns6360.hostgator.com report NS ns6359.hostgator.com ns6360.hostgator.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.
  • ✓ 2 autonomous systems #11
    The nameservers are spread over: AS31898 (ORACLE-BMC-31898 - Oracle Corporation, US): 3 addresses; AS46606 (UNIFIEDLAYER-AS-1 - Unified Layer, US): 1 address.
  • 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.
