TWNIC E-name Current status/Future plan 2001.10.20

E-name Framework Registration Policy(DN) Registration Policy(E-name) D Domain Name E-name DN &E-name System E-name DN

Operational Features Combine with DN One 「E-name」for each registered general chinese domain name 「E-name」is included with specific English Domain Name（ .com.tw、.org.tw、.net.tw、 .idv.tw、.gov.tw、.edu.tw） the suffix with「.tw」 「.cn」 「.台灣」 「.中國」in Chinese will be treat as 「E-name」 The limitation of character same as the domain name Adopt DNS as backend Database

Resolution Rule If input string without 「.」append .tw then query DNS if query failed, then add prefix with 「 www」to query DNS again if query fail again, redirect to search engine Input string with 「.」query DNS directly if query failed, then add prefix with 「 www」to query DNS again if query failed again, redirect to search engine

Client solution Using the Proxy.pac solution

Server solution Support search engine to help user find the possible result Using Web Server to resolve E-name

IE Keyword server DNS Query result If just one record match browser will connect it directly If not found in DNS, browser will connect to search engine

Development in the future Integrate keyword and AP based on DN Cooperate with search engine vendors Build interconnection model in CDNC

Keyword interconnection Architecture Global TW Global CN ? Global HK Global MO
