Probleme mit Namensauflösung China
2023/06/12
+++ Update vom 28.06.2023: Die Störung ist behoben. +++ Aktuell gibt es Probleme bei der Nameserver-Abfrage im Bereich des China Education and Research Network Center. Betroffen sind zum Beispiel die Tongji Universität. Beim Versuch, Namen und IP-Adressen aus diesen Netzen aufzulösen, kommt es zu Timeouts, die dann in einem Nameserver-Fehler (SERVFAIL) münden. Aufgefallen ist es bei Mailservern, die die IP-Adressen der einliefernden Mailserver per DNS überprüfen. Durch die Timeouts kann diese Überprüfung fehlschlagen. Die Chinesischen Admins kennen das Problem, konnten jedoch keine Aussage treffen, wie lange das Problem noch bestehen wird. Im Einzelfall könnte eine Abhilfe darin bestehen, betroffene IP-Adressen statisch über die Host-Datei Ihres Systems einzutragen.
