Updated DNS monitoring

Hi, NANOGers.

I've crafted several enhancements to my DNS monitoring suite. I am now
monitoring the gTLD name servers, and you can see the data here:

I have enhanced the root and gTLD name server monitoring. Now instead
of only graphing hourly query response, I am also graphing hourly ICMP
8 0 ("ping") response. This may provide some additional insight during
periods of high latency; it may instead be specious as all get out. :wink:
You will find it here:

On a related note...

Are you lame? Being lame means I will pick on you during my next
presentation. Avoid this shame! :slight_smile: Take a look at the lame server
report below. It is updated weekly. My thanks to those who donate to
the data.

Comments, feedback, donated data, and peering sessions are always
welcome!

Thanks,

I checked out the current list mainly for personal amusement, and to check
if the nameservers I know admins for were listed.

1. It would be nicer to have a search feature than just having to pull
down the whole list to check for a name/pattern.

2. I noticed a few merit.edu listings. I thought that was mildy amusing,
being the host of the NANOG list. I hope they are benefitting from the
list as well.

Just finished getting the whole list, so I'm going to sift through it for
people I know. Hope the feedback is helpful.

Hi, Gerald.

Excellent idea! As the link on which my web server resides now has
several bulges, it seems very wise to generate a search capability. :slight_smile:
I'll add that to my TO-DO list. I want to get some additional BGP data
points online first, so I'll have to ponder the priorities a bit.

Very, thanks!

To those of you who are having difficulty viewing the site: I apologize,
and I'm trying to find a way to alleviate the paucity of available
bandwidth into my home lab. Stay tuned!

Thanks,
Rob.
