New Attribute in DOMAIN Object

ripe database news announcement

You may have seen our recently announced plans to deploy DNSSEC on the reverse tree. You can read more about this at:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/db-wg/2005/msg00156.html

This plan contains a proposal for the new "ds-rdata:" attribute. This attribute is used to perform the public key exchange that is needed to obtain a secured delegation. It is used in addition to the delegation information stored in the "nserver:" attribute.

You can find more details in the Draft Registry Procedure at:
