Abstract

A method includes monitoring the operational status of at least some name servers in a name server network. Based on the monitoring, when an error or anomalous condition is detected at a particular name server, creating a policy to indicate the status of the particular name server. The policy is taken into account when resolving hostnames using the name server network.
