(ns2,ns1).above.com.
We pick l.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about erinaceous.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask h.gtld-servers.net where we learn that erinaceous.com is delegated to two name servers, including ns2.above.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Erinaceous.com is a domain controlled by four domain name servers at eurodns.com having a total of eight IP numbers. Some of them are on the same IP network. Erinaceous.com has one IP number (208.73.210.233), but the reverse is ?.
Half of the several thousand of host names that point only to the IP number 208.73.210.233 use name server group 1 (example: muhomedepotaccount.com, ineedpopcon.com and bnd2.info ). Worth noting is that about one in six of the domains that use name server group 1 point only to the IP number 208.73.210.233.
