The skies turned grey today, which did not deter our attendees from filling the Workshop room to enjoy Day 2 of OARC 24.

The morning plenary session focused on Tools and Measurements — Knot DNS, Threshold-Cryptography Distributed HSM and Multi-vantage point DNS diagnostics and measurements.

The attendees then enjoyed a 30-minute networking coffee break after which the mid-morning plenary session focused on Research, with analysis of root server attacks which took place last year, locating missing keytags of a DNSSEC signing key, and plans to increase the size of the root zone Zone Signing Key (ZSK).

OARC 24 Day 2 Lunch

The afternoon’s first plenary session had a broader remit with a mix of fuller presentations and lightning talks. Talks included Integration testing of DNS servers, evolution and “meta-slave” of secondary DNS service for customers and a review of ECDSA by Geoff Huston from APNIC, who then remained on stage to give a lightning talk. Other quick fire talks were given by Sara Dickinson (Sinodun), Mark Andrews (ISC), Matt Weinberg (Verisign) and Stéphane Bortzmeyer (Afnic).

The final plenary session after the mid-afternoon break focused on DNSSEC Algorithm rollover, with a couple of presentations — Rolling the Root key ; and Algorithm rollover experiences — followed by a very interactive panel and audience session on DNSSEC algorithm flexibility.
