The DNSSEC technology expands the domain name system (DNS) by elements increasing the security of the services for the translation of domain names to IP addresses and vice versa. DNSSEC ensures the credibility of the data obtained from the DNS. One of the problems occurring in the DNSSEC introduction is the incompatibility of some devices with this security technology. This especially applies to hardware intended for use in households and small organisations, such as DSL modems, cable modems, internal routers, wireless network connection points, etc. The incompatibility means that the device is not able to process the DNS enquiries with the switched-on validation by means of DNSSEC.
DNSSEC compatibility depends on other factors than just your device including your ISP's network, other devices in your local network or proper DNSSEC configuration of your device.
The information about the level of the DNSSEC compatibility of various devices based on the testing of each of them is offered by this website. The website contains the hardware database where you can find the device you have at home or intend to buy. Further, it includes a special testing application enabling the compatibility testing. After downloading it, the testing of your hardware will not take more than a few minutes. You can submit the result of such a test to the device database and thus inform other users and device producers, and contribute to the correction of any occurring problems.
This website is for all of you who:
