Colleagues,

ICANN plans to begin a test deployment of DNSSEC in various zones starting =
on 2010-04-29:

  IN-ADDR-SERVERS.ARPA
  IP6.ARPA
  IP6-SERVERS.ARPA
  IRIS.ARPA
  URI.ARPA
  URN.ARPA

These zones will be signed using RSASHA256 and NSEC with 2048-bit KSKs and =
1024-bit ZSKs.

Given DNSSEC deployment experience to date, ICANN does not expect the signi=
ng of these zones to cause any operational problems. However, should you ha=
ve any concerns please feel free to contact us at ticket@dns.icann.org or p=
hone +1 310 301 5810 (e-mail/ticket preferred).

At the end of the test period, given no observed or reported harmful effect=
s, ICANN will arrange for trust anchors for these zones to be included in A=
RPA as DS RRSets and will invite the five RIRs to submit DS RRSet add/delet=
e requests in IP6.ARPA when they are ready. We anticipate the testing perio=
d to last at least two weeks.

Regards,


Joe Abley
Director DNS Operations, ICANN=
