The root server is operated by different enterprises and non-profit organizations. For example, the L server is operated by ICANN, whose Chinese name is Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, and it is a non-profit organization. 20 16, 10 In June, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration under the US Department of Commerce completely handed over the Internet domain name management (IANA) to ICANN, which marked an important step towards global governance of the Internet.

Considering the security of Internet in China, since all operators of 13 root are not enterprises and organizations in China, and due to the capacity limitation of DNS packets in IPv4, it is impossible to add new root information. Therefore, in the IPv4 environment, it is almost impossible to solve the autonomous and controllable root server.

If the change of IPv6 relative to IPv4 in DNS domain name resolution is the more and more widely used in IPv6 era and DNSSEC, then UDP protocol packets carrying DNS requests and responses are no longer the limit to limit the number of root servers.

The "Internet Engineering Center" in China has jointly launched the "Snowman Project" with the Japanese wide organization (now the operator of Internet MOOT) and the Internet Domain Name Engineering Center (ZDNS), and www.yeti-dns.org is its official website. From the homepage of this project, under the title of Yeti DNS project, you can see a subtitle: "-A live pure IPv6 root DNS server system test bed", that is, an online pure IPv6 DNS root server system test bed.

The arrangement of Yeti DNS project is to recruit 25 root server operation volunteer units around the world before the end of June 2065438+2005 to test and verify IPv6 root server operation, domain name system security extended key signature and key rotation. Because Yeti's server is not the real root server, it is impossible to obtain the notification information of area update (RFC 1996). The snowman server obtains regional files and updates from the f root in 13 root through unauthenticated polling. The snowman project I * * * consists of three DM (distribution directors), namely BII (China), WIDE (Japan) and TISF (USA).

The root server is operated by different enterprises and non-profit organizations, not given by the United States. Simply put, the National Telecommunications and Information Bureau under the US Department of Commerce completely handed over the Internet domain name management (IANA) to ICANN, marking an important step for the Internet to move towards global governance. Building a root server also requires costs, maintenance costs, and so on. A country can't do without money and technology. There are many netizens in China, and there are many places where ip addresses are needed. Do everything possible to get them.
