(Measurement #9209448 finds several probes asking a rogue L-root, which has no NSID support, or located behind a middlebox which strips NSID. Check probes 23621,19770, 24890, 26328, 27059, 27080, 27843, 33806, 21570,14272, 13660, 17775, 17841, 26587, 30847, 11410, 23438, 29814, 13719, 21140, 25189, 25197. For some, the SOA serial number is so old that it is probably a rogue root name server. Also, one probe, 28846, finds a server replying with an abnormal NSID, which is not the normal from L-root.) > 1) Enable the NSID option for the existing built-in measurements > towards the nine root servers which support it. Why one these? Activating it for all servers would help if the last non-NSID servers switch suddenly to NSID. And it would also be useful to find rogue servers if they have NSID enabled (probe 28846 is behind a proxy which always add dummy NSID replies).
