This is an Informational Message to the internet community:

Monday evening, the 26th of March, Verisign Global Registry Services
will be
changing the IP address for a.gtld-servers.net in the authoritative NS
set serving com/net/org.

The new set of servers authoritative for these TLDs will be:

A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         192.5.6.30
G.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         198.41.3.101
C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         192.26.92.30
I.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         192.36.144.133
B.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         203.181.106.5
D.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         208.206.240.5
L.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         192.41.162.30
F.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         192.35.51.30
J.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         210.132.100.101
K.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         213.177.194.5
E.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         207.200.81.69
M.GTLD-SERVERS.NET.     6D IN A         202.153.114.101

This will not require any change to root.cache file and both the old and

new IP's for a.gtld-servers.net will provide answers for com, net, and
org in parallel for enough time to accommodate the zones TTL's.
