Definitions

  • the present invention relates to network communications and particular to methods and systems for further advancing current domain name system, enabling registration and utilisation of unlimited number of domain names.
  • the Internet has become an essential part of modern society and the explosive growth of the Internet and the increasing amount of online electronic information has made the Internet an important information source for digital consumers today.
  • On the consumer side many new devices other than traditional desktop computers are being used to access the Internet.
  • On the network side more and more websites provide rich multimedia content, an integration of text, images, audio, video, graphics, and applications.
  • IP Internet protocol
  • domain names are preferable for people.
  • DNS Domain Name System
  • DNS is a global database system which provides resolution or mapping from a host name (such as www.un.org) to an IP address (such as 157.150.34.32 or 0:0:0:0:0:ffff:9d96:2220), or vice versa. It is a distributed and hierarchical system, ensuring coherency as well as avoiding a single point of failure. The results of database lookups are often cached, reducing network traffic and server load, and increasing lookup efficiency.
  • the database system of the DNS is represented as a labelled tree called the domain name space.
  • the strings associated with tree nodes are called DNS labels, which consists of alphabets, numeric numbers, and the dash character (-).
  • DNS labels which consists of alphabets, numeric numbers, and the dash character (-).
  • the domain name of a domain is a string concatenating all labels from the domain's root to the root of the entire name space, separated with periods.
  • the highest level in the DNS hierarchy is the "root,” which is technically unnamed but often referred to as the ".”
  • the level immediately below the root in the DNS hierarchy is the top- level domain, or "TLD.” Examples of TLDs are the com, net, org, bank, edu domains, which are commonly called generic TLD (gTLD).
  • country code top-level domains (or ccTLDs).
  • gTLDs and ccTLDs there is no technical difference between gTLDs and ccTLDs in terms of the DNS protocol; the difference is in who manages the corresponding name space.
  • a DNS zone file may contain one or many domains and sub-domains, depending on administrative options of the zone manager. For example all TLD names are listed in root zone file.
  • Every node in the name space belongs to one and only one of the zones, which allows a zone to define an administration boundary of a particular part of the name space.
  • Each zone is served by one or more nameservers .
  • a nameserver of a zone maintains domain names within the zone, and responds to database queries for the names.
  • Nameservers are often called authoritative (DNS) servers.
  • DNS authoritative
  • Nameservers of the root zone and gTLD zones are for multiple different zones. For example, com and net zones are served by the same set of nameservers.
  • zones have more than one authoritative server, particularly in the case of top-level zones, to provide redundancy and improve stability.
  • Non- authoritative servers which have a cache file that is constructed from all the DNS lookups it has performed in the past for which it has gotten an authoritative response.
  • SRS Shared Registration System
  • DNS system is administered and accredited by non-profit organisation called Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).
  • ICANN responsible for coordinating the maintenance and methodologies of several databases, with unique identifiers, related to the namespaces of the Internet - and thereby, ensuring the network's stable and secure operation.
  • ICANN was established by US Department of Commerce initiative to take over the IANA functions in 1998.
  • One embodiment of current invention can be used to eliminate the dependence on gradual increase of root zone file; in addition to possibility, it creates for end-users to register domain name from unlimited variation of domain names.

  • Group- server 212 alphabetically or otherwise searches for records in its database of domain names for the domain name. If in the database exists a record then the group-server sends back a message of not availability of domain name for registration back to the registrar. If there is no record for the domain name in the database, then sends a message 214 of availability of domain name for registration back to the registrar 204, which in turn sends corresponding message 216 to the registrant 200.

Then, DNS resolver 304 contacts and requests 306 from group- server 212 and gets network address data 308 of authoritative name 312 server for the domain name.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes permettant d'enregistrer un nombre illimité de noms de domaine. Selon un mode de réalisation de la présente invention, des noms de domaine nouveaux et/ou actuellement enregistrés sont classés et mis en groupes, et chaque groupe est maintenu par au moins un système informatique tel qu'un serveur informatique. (serveur de groupe). Dans le cas d'une demande de résolution DNS ou d'enregistrement de nom de domaine pour un nom de domaine, l'adresse réseau du serveur de groupe maintenant le groupe correspondant est calculée à partir du nom de domaine même par le système décrit à l'aide du procédé décrit. D'autres opérations relatives au nom de domaine sont effectuées dans le serveur de groupe correspondant. Un autre mode de réalisation de la présente invention peut être utilisé pour améliorer un serveur de noms racine actuel sans compromettre la taille de fichier de zone racine, afin de permettre l'enregistrement d'un nombre illimité d'extensions de nom de domaine de niveau supérieur.
