Hi Rebecca, IMHO i think that ISPs will remain unaffected as long as they dont have validating resolvers or DNSSEC aware Recursive Servers (the servers that clients use to do DNS lookups). However, immediately they enable validation (turn on DNSSEC on their recursive servers) then operational challenges will be experienced as mentioned in the article. Theres an awareness issue here similar to the process undertaken with IPv6, where operators and consumers alike need to be conscious of the emerging technologies and whether the newly acquired hardware/software actually supports it. In this case do they support EDNS0 and IPv6. my-2-cents Michuki. Rebecca Wanjiku wrote:

Some Africa ISP heads think it will have no effect, the root operators think it will. Who do you believe? Your choice.
