Zone is signed but the parent has no DS record
ATTENTIONWhat it means
example.com publishes DNSSEC keys, but the registrar has not published the matching DS record. The chain of trust is broken at the top, so validating resolvers treat the zone as unsigned, you have the cost of DNSSEC and none of the benefit.
How to fix it
Copy the DS record from your DNS host into your registrar control panel. It is a one-time step that is easy to miss.
Check your own domain
This page describes the condition. To find out whether your domain has it, run the DNSSEC test or the full checkup, which examines every record at once.
Understand it properly
This page covers one condition. For the whole picture, DNSSEC, defined, or start at the Health Library.
Where this comes from
We judge this against RFC 4035 section 2.4. Every finding on this site cites the specification behind it so you can check the work rather than take our word for it.
