DNSSEC Validation Metrics

Registry Agreement Spec 6

DNSSEC is required by the Registry Agreement (Specification 6) but is not part of the Spec 10 SLA. We monitor DNSSEC validation independently.

Period Validation Rate RTT p50 RTT p95 Checks Status
24h 100% 112ms 114ms 88
7d 99.35% 115ms 205ms 464
30d 99.70% 113ms 148ms 2664

Unlike Spec 10 services, DNSSEC has no formal availability SLA. Thresholds shown are operational guidelines.
