A presentation, by ISC's Ondřej Surý, at RIPE 92 was on the topic of DNS provisioning, looking at how to strike a balance between resilience and efficiency in the provisioning of nameservers of DNS zones and the performance of DNS resolvers. lets dive into this topic!

In October 2026 the Key-Signing Key of the DNS Root Zone will rolled to a new value. Can we measure how well DNS Resolvers that perform DNSSEC validation are prepared for this change in the trusted root key?

It's fading from our collective memory, but almost thirty years ago the global IT industry was gripped by Y2K fever. Another version of the counter rollover problem is coming back in 2036, 2038 and 2040. Hopefully we will avoid a large amount of hysteria this time around!
