+Request for Comments: 1956 R. Plzak
+Category: Informational DoD NIC
+ June 1996
+
+
+ Registration in the MIL Domain
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This memo provides information for the Internet community. This memo
+ does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of
+ this memo is unlimited.
+
+Introduction
+
+ This RFC describes the policy for the registration of second level
+ domains under the ".MIL" domain.
+
+Policy
+
+ A. The ".MIL" domain is delegated from the root authority to the US
+ Department of Defense (DoD). Only US military services, unified or
+ specified commands, and operating agencies of the DoD which do not
+ report through military service chains can be registered as a second
+ level domain under the ".MIL" domain. All other DoD organizations
+ will register through their respective second level domain
+ administrators using the registration procedures established by those
+ offices. The ".MIL" domain is administered by the DoD Network
+ Information Center (NIC).
+
+ B. The domain names under the ".MIL" will be descriptive of the
+ organization they will service. The domain name length is preferred
+ to be 12 characters or less, and must be unique (first come first
+ serve if duplicates occur).
+
+ C. Each second level domain under the ".MIL" domain will be
+ supported by at least two name servers. Preferably these servers
+ will be located in two separate networks. All DNS servers supporting
+ subdomains of the ".MIL" domain must be in the ".MIL" domain.
+
+ D. Prospective second level domain administrators in the ".MIL"
+ domain will request registration using the template provided by the
+ DoD NIC. The templates are available via anonymous FTP or
+ interactively via the DoD NIC World Wide Web Homepage. The domain
+ request template shall be submitted to the DoD NIC hostmaster
+ (hostmaster@nic.ddn.mil). The DoD NIC hostmaster will only accept
+ domain registration templates from registered ".MIL" users.
