We pick h.root-servers.net, one of the 13 root servers (1), and ask it about yahootogo.com and learn that com is delegated to 13 name servers (2), so we ask h.gtld-servers.net where we learn that yahootogo.com is delegated to five name servers, including ns2.yahoo.com (3), so we ask that one and get the following answer:
Yahootogo.com is a domain controlled by five domain name servers at yahoo.com. All five of them are on different IP networks. Incoming mail for yahootogo.com is handled by one mail server at .. We are missing the IP:s of one server: .. Yahootogo.com has two IP numbers (68.180.206.184, 98.139.102.145). Both are on different IP networks.
The five name servers ns1, ns2, ns3, ns4 and ns5.yahoo.com together
Three quarter of the about ninety domains that use name server group 1 point to IP group 1 (example: cgi2-yahoo.com, dlsyahoo.com and emailyahoomail.com ). Worth noting is that nine percent of the host names that point to IP group 1 use name server group 1.
