Faster Updates for DNS Root Servers Arrive

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the quicker-name-picker-upper dept.

Tee Emm writes "VeriSign's DNS Rapid Update notice period (as announced on NANOG mailing list) expires today. Beginning September 9, 2004 the SOA records of the .com and .net zones will be updated every 5 minutes instead of twice a day. The format of the serial number is also changing from the current YYYYMMDDNN to a new one that depicts the UTC time." We first mentioned this back in July, but it's finally launching now.

    I don't really care about this thread, I just thought it would be wrong if I didn't post anything here.
