ICANN tentatively adopts '.internal' as private TLD for internal network, soliciting public comments – GIGAZINE(ギガジン)

If “.internal'' is officially adopted, it will be confirmed that the TLD “.internal'' will not be used in the global space in the future, and at the same time, confusingly similar TLDs may be prohibited.

At the time of writing this article, when accessing internal network devices such as routers in the home, it is necessary to directly enter an IP address such as ‘192.168.xx’, but as ‘.internal’ becomes more popular, it will become more readable by humans. It is expected that it will be accessible in an easy-to-use domain format.
