prisoner.iana.org (192.175.48.1) These servers are registered in the DNS directory as the authoritative servers for the reverse lookup zone of the 10.0.0.0 / 8, 172.16.0.0 / 12 and 192.168.0.0 / 16 addresses. These servers are configured to answer any query with a "nonexistent address" answer.
Paul Vixie, the main designer of BIND, the de facto standard software for DNS servers in UNIX-like operating systems, is a high-profile proponent of the ORSN. [2] Paul Vixie is member of Security and Stability Advisory Committee of ICANN ; [ 3 ] he served on the board of trustees of the American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) from 2005 to ...
Some OpenNIC recursive servers (Tier 2 servers) are known for their high speeds and low latency, relative to other more widely used DNS recursors, [4] as well as their anonymizing or no-logging policies. [5] [6] Many servers offer DNSCrypt. Community volunteers operate Tier 2 servers across a multitude of geographic locations.
A public recursive name server (also called public DNS resolver) is a name server service that networked computers may use to query the Domain Name System (DNS), the decentralized Internet naming system, in place of (or in addition to) name servers operated by the local Internet service provider (ISP) to which the devices are connected.
On October 21, 2002 an attack lasting for approximately one hour was targeted at all 13 DNS root name servers. [1] The attackers sent many ICMP ping packets using a botnet to each of the servers. However, because the servers were protected by packet filters which were configured to block all incoming ICMP ping packets, they did not sustain much ...
This is a list of notable managed DNS providers in a comparison table. A managed DNS provider offers either a web-based control panel or downloadable software that allows users to manage their DNS traffic via specified protocols such as: DNS failover , dynamic IP addresses , SMTP authentication , and GeoDNS .
The DNS server also features blocking domain names using block lists [23] and also supports using HTTP or SOCKS5, for transport of DNS requests over Tor network. [24] The DNS server supports running independently developed plugins that can be used to process and respond to DNS requests.
DNS hijacking, DNS poisoning, or DNS redirection is the practice of subverting the resolution of Domain Name System (DNS) queries. [1] This can be achieved by malware that overrides a computer's TCP/IP configuration to point at a rogue DNS server under the control of an attacker, or through modifying the behaviour of a trusted DNS server so that it does not comply with internet standards.
