New RSreg – new functions and greater domain registration security

21/07/2016

On 26th July 2016, the RNIDS Foundation moved to a new Domain name registration system "RSreg 2.0" - used for the registration of domain names in the country code top-level domains .RS and .СРБ. The new RSreg software is the result of several years of development by local experts and has all the features that fit the requirements of modern registries.  

During the handover to the new system, the registration of new domain names and the service for registered domains availability check (Whois), were temporarily offline – from the morning of 26th July to the afternoon. There was no interruption to the operation of existing registered domains, and visitors to sites on the national internet domains haven't noticed the move to RSreg 2.0 at all.

The new domain name registration system will provide additional support to RNIDS registrars and allow them to use the standard EPP protocol, also used in the registration of generic domains (.com and others). It will also allow the new General Terms and Conditions for the Registration of National Internet Domain Names to come into force. These terms emphasize the requirement to supply a correct e-mail address for the registrant, which will now be compulsory for verifying data on a registered domain name. 

The registration system is based on an advanced, high-uptime, virtualized computing infrastructure and new software. The software architecture was designed by the Belgrade University Faculty of Electrical Engineering, with a modular structure that allows for greater reliability, security and performance, as well as easier maintenance and upgrading.
