Framing ccTLD relations

Linking global and national responsibilities

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

I arrive now at the ineffable core of my story. And here begins my despair as a narrator. All language is a set of symbols whose use among its speakers assumes a shared past. How, then, can I translate into words the limitless Aleph, which my floundering mind can scarcely encompass?

What my eyes beheld was simultaneous, but what I shall now narrate will be successive, because language is successive. Nonetheless, I'll try to recollect what I can.

Paraphrased and Excerpted from: the Aleph, by Jorge Luis Borges

Background SIDN From Policy development to

Accountabillity Frameworks Accountability frameworks

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

Background SIDN (1)

Goal: Secure the continuity and stability of .NL zone; Secure and enhance the stability and interoperability of

the DNS in a evolutionary manner to the benefit of the local and global internet community

Continuation of self-organisation and -regulation Means: Formalization of relations with

Dutch government ICANN

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

Background SIDN (2)

SIDN: registry .nl (sponsoring org. Admin-c and tech-c)

Incorporated and operational in the Netherlands:Competition law, data protection law etc.; National law: IP-rights in list of domainnames

and registration software

Re-cap discussion scope of ccNSO functional model of DNSRoles and responsibilities Initial scope of ccNSO

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

A functional DNS model (1)

Function 1: Run a name server and keep it running (NSF)

Function 2: Registering data (DEF) The two functions are linked by generating

a zone file

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

A Functional DNS model (2)

DNS is hierarchicalFirst level or the ROOTSecond level or the ccTLD Third and/or lower or level user

Distribution of responsibilitiesVertical (level 1, 2, 3)Horizontal

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

Vertical distribution

Responsibilities level 1 Data registration function (IANA dbase) Name server function (ROOT)

Responsibilities level 2 (ccTLD dbase/NS) Data registration function (ccTLD dbase) Name server function (ccTLD NS)

Responsibilities level 3 Data registration function (domain name data) Name server function (domain name NS)

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

Horizontal distribution

Policy role: the ability and power to define a policy

Executive role: the ability and power to act upon and implement the policy; and

Accountability role: the ability and power to hold the executive entity accountable for exercising its power

Overarching concern: continuity of .NL Process

Identifying common issuesLife-cycle approachLinking issues to phase of registry Identifying measures and legal framework

Kuala Lumpur 24 July 2004 ICANN/ITU workshop

Identified common issues

Maintain link registry .nl and the Netherlands Operational

Continuation of Delegation; Ensuring Data Entry Function (DEF) ; Ensuring Name server function (NSF)

Naming policy Ensure interest of all stakeholders are taken into

account; Ensure: objective criteria, non-discrimination and

transparency.

Objectives SIDN

After concluding negotiations with: ICANNDutch Gov’t

Continuity and stability of .NL zone SIDN roles and responsibilities in DNS are:

structurally embedded; fomally linked; clearly delineated.
