.be country-code

Found

TLD: .be (country-code)
ICANN policies apply: no

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.

Delegation from: a.nsset.be (194.0.6.1)

2 nameservers

Two nameservers meet the minimum; RFC 2182 recommends three or more for important zones: ns1.esi-web.be, ns2.esi-web.be.

#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 different networks #10

The nameservers are spread over 2 IPv4 /24s and 0 IPv6 /48s.
✓ 2 autonomous systems #11

The nameservers are spread over: AS16276 (OVH - OVH SAS, FR): 1 address; AS211079 (ESI-INFORMATIQUE-AS - E.S.I. Informatique S.P.R.L., BE): 1 address.
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
!

No IPv6

None of the nameservers has an IPv6 address, so IPv6-only resolvers can't reach them.

#13

Checks

✓ All respond #14

All 2 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.
i

Identifying string disclosed

These nameservers answer version queries with a string that is not a version number: ns1.esi-web.be: "unknown"; ns2.esi-web.be: "unknown".

#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.

NSEC3 with extra iterations or salt

NSEC3 uses 10 iterations and a 0-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.
