TLD SLA Compliance Metrics

Spec 10

24h	100%	100%	168ms	175ms	60

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
24h	100%	140ms	155ms	88
7d	100%	140ms	155ms	480
30d	100%	140ms	157ms	2666

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

Per ICANN Spec 10, we test all delegated nameserver IPs independently.
