First-of-its-kind agreement recognizes mutual responsibilities, supports enhanced Internet stability
Marina del Rey, CA: ICANN and Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) are today announcing the signing of a Mutual Responsibilities Agreement for the operation of the F-root nameserver.
Effective root server operations are an essential component in providing a stable and secure, globally interoperable Internet. ISC is one of twelve global root server operators that provide a key element of the underlying domain name system infrastructure of the Internet. Essentially, root servers provide an authoritative directory ensuring Internet services that are accessed with names, for example the URL www.icann.org or email to [email protected], are translated from human readable names into network addresses that a computer can find. The root server system overall answers well over 100,000 queries per second, providing the first step in determining the requested network address.
ICANN Chairman foresees a busy and exciting 2008 for the multi-stakeholder community which makes up the global coordinator of the Internet’s system of unique identifiers.
MARINA DEL REY, Calif. : The Chairman of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) today welcomed the beginning of its tenth year of operations.
“Happy New Year to all those involved in the work that ICANN does,” said Peter Dengate Thrush, Chairman of the Board of ICANN. “I extend my personal best wishes to you all, and thank you in advance for the contributions I know you will be making to ICANN’s mission in 2008.”
