RFC 2606 reserves .example, .invalid, .localhost and .test but these don't seem approriate.

Not IETF/ICANN reserved, but ISO 3166 [1] reserves the following code elements which could be used as "private" ccTLD :) "If users need code elements to represent country names not included in this part of ISO 3166, the series of letters AA, QM to QZ, XA to XZ, and ZZ, and the series AAA to AAZ, QMA to QZZ, XAA to XZZ, and ZZA to ZZZ respectively and the series of numbers 900 to 999 are available."

I happened to be looking for some other details on mDNS yesterday and noticed that the current draft version of the spec reserves .local: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns-14 This document specifies that the DNS top-level domain ".local." is a special domain with special semantics, namely that any fully- qualified name ending in ".local." is link-local, and names within this domain are meaningful only on the link where they originate. At the same time it also specifies that .local can only be used with mDNS, so it isn't really suitable for this use. . .

But it does provide some alternatives: .intranet .internal .private .corp .home .lan But can we guarantee that they won't be approved as new public TLDs per the new rules adopted this summer where anything can be a TLD?

Oops, I didn't read that far in the draft ;) Interesting question, and it forced me to download and crack open the 352-page ICANN guidebook for new gTLDs. Page 2-8 says: Top-Level Reserved Names List AFRINIC ALAC APNIC ARIN ASO CCNSO EXAMPLE* GAC GNSO GTLD-SERVERS IAB IANA IANA-SERVERS ICANN IESG IETF INTERNIC INVALID IRTF ISTF LACNIC LOCAL LOCALHOST NIC NRO RFC-EDITOR RIPE ROOT-SERVERS RSSAC SSAC TEST* TLD WHOIS WWW *Note that in addition to the above strings, ICANN will reserve translations of the terms “test” and “example” in multiple languages. The remainder of the strings are reserved only in the form included above. I suppose any of those could be used. I like .invalid, personally ;) Bill. ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users

DNS Bulk Query Tool
Dear All, I set up a new DNS Server using Bind 9.7 For meantime I open this server for the whole world. I wanna check how many queries it can handle. Is this any freeware available for checking this. Is there any tool available by which I can come to know after how much load my DNS will be down (Or it will stop responding) ???

RE: DNS Bulk Query Tool
Hi Gaurav, I would use dnsperf and the 1 million website list from Alexa: DNSPerf: Freebsd: http://www.freshports.org/dns/dnsperf Depending on your OS there are available ports too. Alexa's list: http://s3.amazonaws.com/alexa-static/top-1m.csv.zip Did that in the past and it worked pretty well.
