VeriSign Proposal to ICANN to Retain Administration of .Net
VeriSign has submitted a formal proposal to the Internet
Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to retain the administration
and operation of the .net Top-Level Domain (TLD). Read the press release.
VeriSign’s proposal is supported by a stellar record
of providing 100 percent availability of .net TLD resolution services
and 100 percent zone file accuracy over the last seven years, including
an investment of more than $150 million into building a world-class
Internet infrastructure that reliably handles more than 4 billion .net
Domain Name System (DNS) queries each day.
In support of .net, VeriSign operates 18 domain name
constellation sites around the world that monitor and process global
Internet traffic, provides customer service 24 hours a day, seven days
per week, every day of the year in 150 languages, and maintains a TLD
monitoring system called HUD that allows governments and Internet “root”
operators to monitor usage and trends of the .net domain.
