We pick e.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about ai and learn that ai is delegated to three name servers (2), so we ask ns2.offshore.ai and get the following answer:
Ai (the tld of Anguilla) is a domain controlled by three domain name servers at pair.com, offshore.ai and whois.ai. All three of them are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for ai is handled by one mail server at offshore.ai. Ai has one IP number (209.59.119.34), but the reverse is offshore.ai.
Half of the about twenty host names that point only to the IP number 209.59.119.34 use only the mail server mail.offshore.ai.
The name server ns2.offshore.ai
There are about eighty domains that use the name server ns2.offshore.ai.
Ten of those point to the IP number 209.59.119.34. Worth noting is that ten of the host names that point to the IP number 209.59.119.34 use the name server ns2.offshore.ai.
