Checks

  • ✓ 3 nameservers #6
    Delegated to dns1.safenames.com, dns2.safenames.net, dns3.safenames.org.
  • ✓ 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.
  • i
    One address family in one network
    all IPv6 addresses are in 2400:cb00:2049::/48, while the other address family is spread over several networks.
    #10
  • i
    All nameservers in one AS
    All nameserver addresses are announced by one network operator (AS13335 (CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US): 6 addresses). An outage or attack on that network affects all nameservers; large anycast providers mitigate this, but a secondary DNS provider adds independence.
    #11
  • ✓ Nameserver names under 3 TLDs #12
    Nameserver names use the TLDs .com, .net, .org.
  • ✓ All reachable over IPv6 #13
    Every nameserver has an IPv6 address.
