Delegation of Internet Top Level Domains
Categories of top level domains (TLD's):
National TLD's:
Examples: CH, DE, FR, IT, LI, UK, US, ZW etc. These are named in accordance
with ISO 3166, and have, in the major part, been
delegated to national
naming registries.
International Top
Level Domains (iTLD's): The domains COM, ORG, and NET are generic top level
domains which are open to general registration.
They are currently
delegated to the InterNIC by the authority of the IANA.
The intent for
these iTLD's is discussed in RFC-1591. Generally, COM is for commercial
entities, NET is for the international infrastructure of service
providers, and
ORG is for miscellaneous entities.
US Governmental
TLD's: The GOV domain is under the authority of of the US Federal Networking
Council (FNC). Delegation is decribed in RFC-1816.
The MIL domain
is under the authority of the DDN NIC.
EDU TLD: delegation
of the EDU domain is under the authority of the FNC and is currently delegated
to the NSF which has contracted to the InterNIC
for registration.
Infrastructure TLD's:
TLD's such as IN-ADDR.ARPA and INT are under the authority of the IANA
and may be delegated to others, e.g.
IN-ADD.ARPA is
currently delegated to the InterNIC for day-to-day management. They are
created for technical needs internal to the operation of the
Internet at the
discretion of the IANA in consultation with the IETF.
