TestResolvers project

A server will be developed, which include:

• Send jobs to the resolvers? or only receive from them?

1. in first case, a pool of resolvers has to be stored and managed, IP files has to be sent each time.
2. in second case, keys and IP file renovation has to be managed

• the pool of resolvers has to be geolocated and registered with its isp information
• Authentication, for receive data only for valid resolvers
• Data analysis:

1. number of resolvers by port 53 (is the service accepting recursion?)
2. is a valid dnssec name well managed?
3. is an invalid dnssec well managed? (yes => Rcode with error)
4. has the resolver some authoritative info? yes? which one? (why?)
5. is the received information the same for all probes?

• Which DB we will use?

A client side will be developed:

• Performing all resolver-tests

1. is Alive?
2. has Recursion?
3. is valid dnssec well managed?
4. is invalid dnssec well managed?
5. is QID random?
6. is IP PORT random?

• How to test if QID and Port are random?

A pool of tests must be developed

• Authentication
• communication
• border errors
• performance tests?
