We pick c.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about tukids.tucows.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask e.gtld-servers.net where we learn that tucows.com is delegated to three name servers, including ns1.tucows.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Tukids.tucows.com is a domain controlled by three domain name servers at tucows.com. Two domain name servers have the same IP number. Both are on different IP networks. Tukids.tucows.com has one IP number (216.40.32.30), but the reverse is ?.
Ten percent of them point to the IP number 216.40.32.30. Worth noting is that twelve of the host names that point to the IP number 216.40.32.30 use the name server dns3.tucows.com.
The name server dns1.tucows.com
There are several hundred of domains that use the name server dns1.tucows.com.
