*Root Zone* *Management*

*The* *Root Zone* *Management implementation planning track contains
projects relating to changes to the root zone management system (RZMS) to
remove NTIA's authorization process, parallel testing of the production and
parallel test RZMS, and the development and execution of an agreement
with Verisign as the root zone maintainer.*
Root Zone Management System (RZMS) Changes to Remove Root Aone
Administrator (RZA) Role and Support Parallel Testing

*Status update:*

We are 75 days into the 90-day parallel testing period and everything
continues to go smoothly. Click here to view Verisign’s daily Parallel
Operations Root Zone Management System Comparison Reports
<http://www.verisign.com/rzms-parallel-ops/index.html> of all the root zone
files generated.

ICANN will be posting the second of three Monthly Reports on RZMS Parallel
Testing Progress during the testing period in the coming days. The report
will be available on ICANN’s dedicated Parallel Testing webpage
<https://www.icann.org/stewardship-implementation/root-zone-management-system-parallel-testing>
.

In the event that no unexplained differences in root zone files are
identified between the production RZMS and the parallel test RZMS, the
testing period will end successfully on 5 July 2016.
