[Idngwg] Summary of meeting on 19 Jan. 2017

[Sarmad Hussain]

Dear All,

 

Regarding the Action Item 2 below, Delegation is one form of Activation. An
active name is one that has, at least, one DNS record in the DNS. A
delegated names is one that has a specific type of DNS record: a NS record.

 

>From this it seems like Activation is a more generic term, which encompasses
Delegation.  

 

I found the following in the Integrated Issues report
(https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/idn-vip-integrated-issues-final
-clean-20feb12-en.pdf; pg. 51:

 

Activated/Active: A status of some label with respect to a zone, indicating
that there are DNS resource records at that node name; or else that there
are subordinate names to that name, even though there are no resource
records at that node name. In the case where there are resource records at
the node name, any resource record will do. In the case where there are
subordinate names but no resource records (except those to support DNSSEC),
the label names an empty non-terminal. A registry (zone operator) setting
the active status activates the name, or performs activation. 

 

Delegated: A status of some label with respect to a zone, indicating that in
that zone there are NS resource records at the label. The NS resource
records create a zone cut, and require an SOA record for the same owner name
and corresponding NS resource records in the subordinate zone. The act of
entering the NS records in the zone at the parent side of the zone cut is
delegation, and to do that is to delegate. This definition is largely based
on RFC 1034; 28 the reader should consult RFC 1034 for detailed discussion
of how the DNS is broken into zones.

Sarmad
