Checks

  • i
    .be is a country-code TLD (ccTLD)
    Country-code TLD: governed by its local registry under national policy, not by an ICANN contract. Registrar accreditation, dispute resolution and RDAP/WHOIS rules are set by the registry.
    #1
  • ✓ TLD delegated and signed #2
    .be is delegated in the root zone and DNSSEC-signed.
  • i
    Registration data not available
    No registration data via RDAP: the registry of .be offers no RDAP service. Many ccTLD registries don't offer RDAP; check the registry's WHOIS instead.

Checks

  • ✓ 4 nameservers #6
    Delegated to ns1.belnet.be, ns2.belnet.be, ns3.belnet.be, nsmaster.belnet.be.
  • ✓ 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.
  • ✓ 2 autonomous systems #11
    The nameservers are spread over: AS2611 (BELNET - BELNET, BE): 6 addresses; AS8674 (NETNOD-IX - Netnod AB, SE): 2 addresses.
  • i
    All nameserver names under .be
    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.

  • !
    NSEC3 with extra iterations or salt
    NSEC3 uses 1 iteration and a 4-byte salt. RFC 9276 recommends 0 iterations and no salt: extra iterations cost resolvers CPU and add no real protection, and some validators treat high counts as insecure.
