2.
On receiving this notification:
- the RA modifies the xyz.it domain present
registration in the database (within 10 working days), modifying the value
of "mnt-by" related attribute from "mnt-by: ABC-MNT"
to "mnt-by: CHANGING-MNT".
This last value corresponds to
a maintainer created expressly to allow the immediate identification of those
domains for which the ISP change is ongoing. - The
RA sends to both the provider/maintainer a provider change statement and urges
NetRegister to send an updated registration form for xyz.it.
- UPDATED
ELECTRONIC FORM FOR THE DOMAIN NAME IS AUTOMATICALLY SENT BY NETREGISTER WIZARDS
AND AUTOMATED PROCEDURES.
3.
Having received the new form (since the receiving of the syntactically correct
form, RA has 10 working days to conclude the registration phase or to highlight
some faults to NetRegister), RA does this: - checks
the primary and secondary nameserver configuration for that domain;
- adds
the postmaster e-mail address in the postmita@nic.it list, if it is not there
yet;
- erases the old form postmaster
address, if the person was only the postmaster for the xyz.it domain;
- modifies,
if necessary, the delegation of xyz.it on the nameserver of .IT (in case of sub-geographical
domains in which the related geographical domain is not managed by RA, the RA
sends the delegation modification request to its manager);
- carries
out the new form registration in the RA and RIPE databases;
- communicates
the delegation change to the old provider/maintainer.
4.
Herewith, please read and take note of the art.5.2
of the Registration Technical Procedures:
"The
assignee of a domain name sends the request for changing maintainer/provider.
This request must be signed by the one indicated as admin-c in the registration
form or by the legal representative of the subject that uses the domain name.
The request must specify the name of the present and the future maintainer. The
Italian Registration Authority modifies the content of the "mnt-by"
field within the electronic form (contained in the RNA) and inserts the value
"CHANGING-MNT", that identifies the domain names which are currently
changing provider/maintainer. Then,
the Registration Authority sends an e-mail to the providers/maintainers involved
in this change, communicating the beginning of this procedure. Consequently, the
RA invites NetRegister to send via electronic mail the new registration form for
the domain name, updating the data. At
this time, the RA applies the check procedures as described in art. 2.2.2,
2.2.3 and 2.2.4.
Furthermore, the RA checks that the previous provider/maintainer has removed the
delegation. If the previous provider/maintainer does not do so, it will be stopped
from registering domain names in the future"
We
strongly recommend you read the most frequent mistakes list reported below in
order to pre-check your request. 5.
The provider/maintainer change most frequent mistakes: - The
requestant is not the admin-c of the domain name, nor the legal representative
of the company which manages the domain name;
- The
business/corporate name of the company is not the same as the one indicated when
the domain name was registered;
- The business/corporate
name is not indicated in full (Ex. The requestant belongs to PIPPO Srl, but the
request comes from PIPPO);
- The letter has
not been signed;
- The letter is not legible;
- The names of the old and the new provider/maintainer
are not indicated correctly (Ex. It is indicated the name of the POP that backs
the maintainer);
- The provider/maintainer name
is not indicated with the MNT abbreviation (in order to check the correctness
of the provider/maintainer name, we invite you to make a query to the WHOIS
database, typing the provider/maintainer name);
- The
new provider/maintainer has not signed a contract with the Registration Authority
yet;
- The domain name is still under registration
or does not exist in the RA database.
Documents
Time
rough From 4 hour to 2-3 days
(if all documents received by RA are correct). Note:
the Registrar/Maintainer transfer procedure is always started by the replacing
Registrar/Maintainer instead of the previous Registrar/Maintainer.
