Measuring DNS parameters Sample Clauses

The "Measuring DNS parameters" clause defines the process and standards for assessing specific technical aspects of the Domain Name System (DNS) within a contractual or operational context. It typically outlines which DNS parameters—such as response time, uptime, or error rates—must be measured, the tools or methodologies to be used, and the frequency of such measurements. By establishing clear measurement criteria, this clause ensures that DNS performance can be objectively evaluated, helping parties monitor compliance with service levels and address issues proactively.
Measuring DNS parameters. Every minute, every DNS probe will make an UDP or TCP “DNS test” to each of the public-­‐DNS registered “IP addresses” of the name servers of the domain name being monitored. If a “DNS test” result is undefined/unanswered, the tested IP will be considered unavailable from that probe until it is time to make a new test.
