Comment on ICANN proposes creating .INTERNAL domain
SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 months ago
Looks like *.lair is still a great one for a local TLD.
Just rock your “Evil.subterranean.lair” people.
You could also go for “Wicked.volcano.lair”
Or even “morallywrong.commercialrealestate.lair”

Very few as this ruling would reserve .internal for local DNS only and forbid it at the global level. This is ICANN’s solution to people picking random .lan .local .internal for internal uses. You’ll be able to safely use .internal and it will never resolve to an address outside your network.

.local is recommended for use with mDNS/Zeroconf

Yes, you’re right, RFC 6762 proposes reserving .local for mDNS. I was not aware of this until you brought it up, hence the dangers of using using TLDs not specifically designated for internal use.

I had actually used .local for years until I caved and bought kingthrillgore.name and used it both for my web sigh and my local domains. For most people, this is an unnecessary cost. We should really approve adding .lan and .locahost to ICANN as reserved domains as well.
