Multiple provisioning object operation
A computer-implemented method, computer-readable medium, and an apparatus operable to perform the method is provided for managing multiple provisioned domain name system (“DNS”) registry objects. The method can include receiving, at a DNS registry, a multiple domain extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command from a registrar on behalf of a registrant to perform an action for each provisioned DNS registry object of the multiple provisioned DNS registry objects; comparing the action with one or more allowable actions in a policy maintained by the registry; determining, by a processor, that the action is allowable based on the comparing; and performing, based on the determining, the action on each of the provisioned DNS registry objects in one transaction.
1. A computer-implemented method for updating domain name system (“DNS”) registry objects, the method comprising:
receiving, at a DNS registry, a command to perform an update action on a plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects, wherein the update action comprises updating contact information for the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects;
comparing the update action with a policy maintained by the DNS registry, wherein the policy comprises at least one allowable action;
determining the update action is allowable based on the policy; and
after determining the update action is allowable, performing the update action for each of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the update action further comprises updating authinfo for the multiple provisioned DNS registry objects.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the authinfo comprises a password.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the contact information comprises at least one of: admin contact information, tech contact information, or billing contact information.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving the command comprises: receiving an extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command from a DNS registrar.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, at a DNS registry, a first extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command to group the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects to be managed together.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the command to perform the update action comprises an extension of an extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein a first object of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects is an international language version of a second object of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects includes a first object with a first top-level domain and a second object with a second top-level domain, wherein the first top-level domain and the second top-level domain are different top-level domains.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein performing the update action comprises: updating the contact information for each of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects in a single transaction.
11. A system for updating domain name system (“DNS”) registry objects, the system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing instructions which, when executed on the processor, perform operations comprising:
receiving, at a DNS registry, a command to perform an update action on a plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects, wherein the update action comprises updating contact information for the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects;
comparing the update action with a policy maintained by the DNS registry, wherein the policy comprises at least one allowable action;
determining the update action is allowable based on the policy; and
after determining the update action is allowable, performing the update action for each of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the update action further comprises updating authinfo for the multiple provisioned DNS registry objects.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the authinfo comprises a password.
14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the contact information comprises at least one of: admin contact information, tech contact information, or billing contact information.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein receiving the command comprises: receiving an extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command from a DNS registrar.
16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving, at a DNS registry, a first extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command to group the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects to be managed together.
17. The system of claim 11 , wherein the command to perform the update action comprises an extension of an extensible provisioning protocol (“EPP”) command.
18. The system of claim 11 , wherein a first object of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects is an international language version of a second object of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects.
19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects includes a first object with a first top-level domain and a second object with a second top-level domain, wherein the first top-level domain and the second top-level domain are different top-level domains.
20. The system of claim 11 , wherein performing the update action comprises: updating the contact information for each of the plurality of provisioned DNS registry objects in a single transaction.
